Wow!

Rating: 10/10 (25 April 2005)

I was 11 when the events in Rwanda happened. I vaguely remembered that something unfair happened to some people far away. I had zero perspective of what was really going on. I'm so glad I have a better perspective now.
This movie is not only a rude awakening to people who were ignorant of the happenings of Rwanda. (Like for me) It is also a powerful and touching example of courage, hope, love, and endurance.
It also puts into perspective what's really important in life. Who cares if you don't get that third car? You could be dead the next day. Be happy with what you have.
I was so moved that I cried through a huge part of the movie. If you want to be humbled and brought to a place beyond selfish motivation, watch this movie.
I love movies. I love the whole concept of acting, and usually watch for how movies are made, how good is the sound, the acting, etc. etc. I didn't really care while watching this one. The story is what got to me. What I said above may sound corny and lame to some, but because this happened to real people, people's opinion don't matter so much to me.
I gave it a 10 out of 10.
