A superb movie

Rating: 8/10 (2 May 2006)

I found this movie to be very thought provoking, informative and most of all moving. This movie highlights the events which took place in Rwanda, during 1994, from the point of view of those who experienced the tragedy firsthand. Thanks to superb performances by the cast we are given an insight as to how truly horrific it was for each person involved. We are shown that mankind is capable of acts of unimaginable horrors but also of incredible bravery and selflessness. The movie demonstrates how a hand-full of people can make a huge difference to so many lives, how racial hatred can drive the masses to extreme acts and how politics and procedure can hinder rather than help. My thanks to the cast and crew for producing such a great film.
