    search of inspiration‚ and I found it on the mediate.com website.

    Hotel Rwanda had me a little confused from the start. I didn’t understand why there was a separation and basically war going on. Hotel Rwanda showed how badly a group of people wanted to damage the lives of others who were almost identical to them. Two groups the Tutsi and Hutu‚ who are the same race‚ and hold the same culture and beliefs‚ so it didn’t seem as if it was an act of violence due to those reasons but of an act on the social level of the two groups. The Hutu were of the higher class

    genocide rampage that swept through Rwanda‚ Africa in 1994. Hotel Rwanda‚ a film directed by Terry George in 2004‚ is a story based on the tragedy that occurred ten years prior. The massacre is a result of the Hutu tribe’s prejudice and discrimination of the Tutsi tribe and the world’s lack of intervention. George’s depiction of the event is less about the massacre itself though because of his choice to portray it from the view of Paul Rusesabagina‚ a Hutu hotel manager married to a Tutsi woman.

    n 1994 in Rwanda‚ a million members of the Tutsi tribe were killed by members of the Hutu tribe in a massacre that took place while the world looked away.

The man is named Paul Rusesabagina‚ and he is played by Don Cheadle as a man of quiet‚ steady competence in a time of chaos. This is not the kind of man the camera silhouettes
