Dusabejambo was born in Kigali and grew up there. She taught herself filmmaking, joining a neighborhood collective of young filmmakers in 2008.

Two years later, she came out on top in a Tribeca Film Institute screenwriting competition, which paved the way for her first short, “Lyiza.” It bowed at Tribeca in 2011 before winning the Bronze Tanit at Carthage the following year. Her later shorts, “A Place for Myself” and “Icyasha,” traveled the international festival circuit and collected a string of awards.

Away from writing and directing, Dusabejambo served as an archivist on “Why We Hate,” the documentary series produced by Steven Spielberg and Alex Gibney. On “Faces We Lost,” she worked as assistant director.

She remains represented by Paris-based attorney Béatrice Roig of Cabinet Béatrice Roig. For Alexander, the film doubles as the first title from its newly launched film division.
