Rwandan Canadian Filmmaker.

Alliah FAFIN was born in Rwanda and raised in Burundi until the 1993 civil war. After studying directing in New-York, she directed music videos for Dominique Fils-Aimé (Révélation Radio-Canada 2019-2020), as well as promotional videos for artists such as Rafael Lozano Hemmer (Winner of the Governor General's Awards in Visual and Media Arts). She left Quebec in 2016 for Chad, where she worked with UNICEF on the production of several videos illustrating the problems encountered by local populations, Nigerian refugees and Central African returnees. In 2018, she shot her first short film AMANI (2020) in Chad, which was inspired by her experience in Burundi.
