Der findes to sider af enhver mønt – og sådan er det også med Rwanda.
På den ene side bliver det lille østafrikanske land kaldt en klimadarling, økonomien buldrer afsted, landet sammenlignes med Singapore – og efter en ihærdig indsats er Rwanda lige nu vært for VM i cykling som det første afrikanske land nogensinde.
Men der er en skyggeside. Rwandas præsident, Paul Kagame, bliver kritiseret for at holde landet i et jerngreb, og rwanderne hvisker, når de taler om ham.
Jyllands-Postens korrespondent for det globale syd, Thomas Foght, er rejst til landet for at trykteste diktatorens glansbillede.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
