Heroism and tragedy as the world looked on
Hotel Rwanda was the shocking true story of how the country of Rwanda disintegrated into civil strife and genocide in 1994. Rwanda was colonized first by the Germans and then the Belgians who took over during World War I. Both promoted the Tutsis as their surrogates to rule the country. In the 1960s the Hutus took power and began repressing the Tutsis. In 1990 civil war broke out. In response Hutus began talking about eliminating all the Tutsis in revenge. That’s the setting of Hotel Rwana which begins with a radio broadcast calling the Tutsis cockroaches who deserved to be exterminated.<br /><br />The movie is based upon the true story of Paul Rusesabagina played by Don Cheadle who was the manager of the Hotel des Mille Collines in the Rwandan capital when the country came apart. After the president was killed the Hutus began a concerted campaign to murder all the country’s Hutus. Rusesabagina’s hotel became a safe haven for people fleeing the genocide. The movie is about the heroism of Rusesabagina who held out against all odds as people were being massacred all around the country. It is also about how the world stood by and did nothing while Rwanda bled. The United Nations was in the country but was toothless because none of the major powers cared. France sent in a military force but it was only to save the Europeans. The Tutsis were left to be killed. That led the head of the U.N. military mission in Rwanda played by Nick Nolte to tell Paul they were “dirt” and the world didn’t care about them implying that was because they were black and African.<br /><br />The movie is as powerful as it is horrifying. Rusesabagina was an amazing man who saw the humanity in all people and tried to save as many as he could. Rwanda was also a tragedy that everyone should become aware of and remember. After the Cold War Africa became largely a forgotten continent. You have to ask if the genocide happened in another part of the world could the international community have ignored it?<br />C
