An aspiring university student moves to Bujumbura from the countryside and has to deal with a dangerous living situation.

Abuse is one of five short dramatic films made during the pilot-project launch of a media development project the Burundi Film Center in the summer of 2007. Four filmmakers traveled to the war-ravaged East African nation of Burundi with no funding and borrowed equipment to train youth aged 18-25 the basics of film theory and production. The result is a truly inspiring cinematic initiative under the mandate to "Inspire. Educate. Entertain."
