Le journaliste Jean Dominique, militant avec sa femme Michèle Montas pour une information accessible par Radio Haïti-Inter en Haïti, relate différents épisodes de sa lutte. Le récit direct et honnête qu’il fait, à partir de 1986 à son ami Jonathan Demme et le tournage dans le pays, montrent toute la sympathie et la solidarité que réserve le peuple haïtien à ceux qui prennent réellement son parti, en même temps que le caractère périlleux de la promotion de l’information libre dans le pays. Combattant et exilé, celui qui se faisait appeler l’agronome, en fonction de sa formation de base, n’a jamais interrompu sa lutte jusqu’à son assassinat en 2000.

In Rwanda, a hundred members of the Ukuri Kuganze Association, made up in its majority by survivors of the genocide, and a few of their executioners, freed after having confessed and asked for forgiveness in 2003, meet at a reinsertion center. These executioners are going home, in most cases to the same places where they carried out their crimes, and will have to "face" their victims and ask their forgiveness. In 1994, over a space of just one hundred days, almost a million people were murdered, that makes 10,000 dead per day.

The Judge and the General tells a story of personal transformation, as a Chilean judge descends into what he calls the "abyss" of investigating crimes committed by Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship during the 1970s and 1980s in Chile.
