Kosovo has been independent since 2008, but the north is still claimed by Serbia. In Mitrovica, the Serbian community lives on the north bank of the river that divides the city, with Kosovar Albanians on the south bank.

Prisca, Marie-Jeanne and Concessa say they survived the Rwandan genocide and sought safety in refugee camps, only to be repeatedly raped and abused by the French soldiers sent there to protect them.

While French army denies all accusations of rape, the three women filed a complaint with the French courts in 2004 and 2012. The investigation is now at a standstill.
