Ashenge

On the eve of the Second World War about one hundred fifty Italians aircrafts bombarded the northern part of Ethiopia with poisonous gas. On March the 6th 1936 the town of Ashenge was shocked by an atrocious mass murder which changed the life of Kassa forever. During the Italian occupation, the Ethiopian patriots fought to restore people’s freedom but few Ethiopians collaborated with the enemy, creating seemingly insurmountable challenges to the freedom fight. To overcome these years of agony, Serke must deal face-to-face with the man responsible for heinous killing of both her parents.
