The story of women in the first women’s drumming group in Rwuanda, Ingoma Nshya and the efforts to establish the first local ice-cream shop in the country: Sweet Dreams... Women who are members of Ingoma Nshya established ten years after the 1994 holocaust have lost their relatives and friends, and still feel the effects of this trauma. The ice-cream shop is both a symbol of entertainment and a hope to gain their own money, earn their lives, for women with traces of the holocaust on their souls and even on the town.
