Question about ending

Rating: 10/10 (14 April 2005)

A profound movie. I'm glad I watched it on DVD. I could pause and take a break when tension was high. Violence was never gratuitous and, as others commented, not seen on screen but left no doubt about what was happening. I remember news reports at the time. I only heard it from our news reports. How could the great powers not have intervened? What is going on today we should be more aware of?
I'm confused on a couple of points: How long a period did this cover? Swimming pool was almost empty in one scene. Was is made clear or were we left with an impression of what happened to those remaining at the hotel at the end? If so, I missed it. Did the hotel ever re- open as a Belgin (or other) enterprise?
