Theopista Mukamana& Marie Claire Umuvandimwe

Claire asks a most interesting and bold question of her elder, Theopista: “In which time did you get hurt the most, and in which one were you happiest?” Her answer is not what is expected. In discussing her life, some of it spent in severe poverty, we learn that Theopista’s life took many sudden turns, from several tragic situations, to a more positive present. Claire is not shy to ask important questions from the role of curses, to how to choose a good partner.
“As an old person, what type of advice can you give me? Because I think I in a situation that you once went through.”
