About this movie

Over 100 days in 1994, the African country of Rwanda was the bloody site for the genocide of almost one million people. As the streets ran with rivers of blood, the international community looked the other way. One man could not. This is his story. Don Cheadle (Ocean's Twelve, After the Sunset) stars as real life hero, Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager in Rwanda who used his courage and cunning to shelter over a thousand refugees from certain death. As Rwanda descended into madness, Rusesabagina risked his liberty and life to save those whom the world had abandoned. Nominated for 3 Academy Awards Registered and applauded by critics globally, Hotel Rwanda is the unforgettable, gripping, true story of one good man who jeopardised everything to do something. 2004 Kigali Releasing Limited

I found this film to be engaging and moving. The story is one of survival and hope. I am glad I watched it.

Devastating, overwhelming, and the world turned their heads and ignored it.

It's political and lied film
