IMDB SYNOPSIS: Ingoma Nshya is Rwanda's first and only all-women's drumming troupe. Made up of women from both sides of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, the troupe offers a place of support, healing, and reconciliation. When the group decides to partner with two young American entrepreneurs, of Brooklyn's Blue Marble Ice Cream, and open Rwanda's first-ever ice cream shop, these remarkable Rwandan women embark on a journey of independence, peace, and possibility. Sweet Dreams interweaves intimate, heart-wrenching stories with joyous and powerful music to present a moving portrait of a country in transition. (Written by International Film Circuit)
