Description
"Umuganda – Inspiration from an African Community" is a documentary that explores the power of collective engagement through a unique Rwandan tradition: Umuganda Day. Ludo and Enzo hop on their bikes and set off on a journey of discovery.
During a trip to Rwanda in 2021, Ludo discovered Umuganda Day, a special day each month when an entire community comes together to build, repair, and care for its environment. Inspired by this collective spirit, he further developed his mountain biking community, Entretrail, which has been organizing volunteer events and maintenance days to support trails and nature for several years.
Fascinated by the strength of Rwandan commitment, Ludo dreams of bringing this energy to Switzerland in an even more meaningful way. Two years later, he returns to Rwanda, this time accompanied by Enzo, a passionate young rider, to reconnect with the locals and discover how that collective spirit manifests itself in their daily lives.
Amid winding roads, bustling villages, and community-driven initiatives, this journey reveals how a simple act of community can become a sustainable driving force for nature and communities. Ludo and Enzo return deeply inspired, determined to pass this energy on within their own communities.
