| Summary | Based on the true story of one man's brave stance against savagery during the 1994 Rwandan conflict. When a hotel manager sees that the world will not intervene in the massacre of minority Tutsis, he finds the courage to open his hotel to over 1,200 refugees. Now, with a rabid militia at the gates, he has only his wits and words to help keep them alive. |
