- Do you think that you can kill them all ?!
- Why not ?, we completed the half way already.
In the mid-nineties it occurred in Africa and one of the worst massacres in human history. In an era of high-speed communications and newsletters around the clock, all over the unnoticed one. Simply put, the world turned away and ran his face, and in less than three months has killed more than a million people. In the middle of the first decade of the third millennium, making the film «Hotel Rwanda» tells of the massacre in the form of mini-tale place in a simple place decided to resist all of those conditions on the land of this country, this place is «Hotel Rwanda».
Million Rwandan human spirit of the citizens of the tribes «Tutsi» killed by extremists from the tribes «Hutu» under the complicity and participation of army commanders and security agencies, and in the global shameful silence. But the film was not able to tell the story of all these, only just the tale of a hotel manager was able to save more than a thousand people from the «Tutsi» the midst of this hell. But the important question is: «How this simple man was able to achieve that?».

Hero of this story is «Paul Rosesabagana» hotel manager who in turn Representative «Don Cheadle», this guy As shown throughout the film director is a quiet man and balanced, knows how to run its affairs the middle of all this chaos, it is not the quality of the men flashy, as it is not an epic hero in any way. This man chose to make his way to bribery, courtesies, and deception. In this, and only this, he is able to save these lives.
«Paul» man «Hutu» married a woman from the «Tutsi», was trained in «Belgium» He now runs a «Des Milles Collins» hotel in the Rwandan capital, «Kigali», he manages the hotel for the happiness of its customers and just as without it does not care However, the interests of his family and close friends. And suddenly it begins a horrific massacre changed all this; armored vehicles, and armed militias begin to racist liquidation of a large operation aimed at genocide each Rwandans belonging to the «Tutsi», he finds «Paul» himself responsible for more than one thousand human spirit resorted to his hotel to escape the killings collective.
Representatives of the United Nations are present in Rwanda under the command of Colonel «Oliver» who performs his role «Nick Nolte». Colonel sees what is happening and begin to inform his superiors, and requests to intervene and help. But what happened after that at least the ugliness in any way for the massacre itself !.

Answer came west, and came with full teams from the armed forces, brought their planes equipped to transport passengers away from this hell, but they did not use their weapons only for their fellow citizens, and did not let that set foot on their vehicles and aircraft forward and one brunette. Is not this another massacre and a crime fledged?!.
«West does not kill in his hand, it is rarely done so. When they have the ability to pick from that will keep him alive and leaving him to die, you do not need this anyway. »
Film «Hotel Rwanda» shows a new chapter in this story, makes the West dilemma through time and when you arrive to the moment of no return seems not ready to sacrifice the blood of its citizens «precious» apparently is not interested in you at all bloodshed «cheap» which would flow after that. Tells this movie Alibdabh In a scene presented by the Irish filmmaker «Terry George» severe Ivca Troy Rwandan girl sitting in the hotel for a correspondents bar journalists how the beginning of this dilemma dating back to the era of the Belgian occupation of Rwanda when they divided the people to «Hutu» and «Tootsie» based on criteria physical very superficial, for example, «the length and width nose.» And then they made «Tutsi» They are in charge of the leadership positions throughout the period of their management of the state, and increased hatred of people of one nation towards each other until the white man is gone, leaving behind an apartheid reached us in the end to the massacre of her puppies died, hundreds of thousands. And then also he decided to turn his back and not reach out to pick up some of the blood and debris, and then also you'll find all the goodwill declares: «What we have entered in all this ?, have completed your problems yourselves!».
- Why would not interfere with the world?
- You are a group of black people, you're not even Znoja, you are "Africans" !.

«Many of us know people who are influential abroad, you should not hesitate to contact these people, should you tell what is happening to us, Golo them goodbye, Coloha as if you arrive to them over the phone and Stmeskun their hands, let them know that if they left this hand, will ye die, you must make them feel ashamed to send help. »
Keeps «Paul» more than a thousand of its partners in the world inside the hotel, out everything in the repertoire of ideas to keep their lives, do not be ashamed of that mediates personal relations with murderers, does not hesitate to bribe the security services of the army and police; until it reaches the end of the threat some of them that the West Sahakmanm if it did not intervene stop harm killers from his hotel; to eventually become a member of the team was formed by chance and the initiatives of individual courage, accompanied by Gen. refused to vacate the battlefield also ordered him to «United Nations» and accompanied by envoys «Red Cross» who Without them what we got infinite number of people killed in the massacre. In the grand moment of abandonment of Western governments and international forces and UN envoys «Paul» decide to change its strategy, even images massacres did not succeed in attracting the attention of the world, the world does not care about anonymous fragments, human beings care about all the faces you know the names of their owners and their tales.

When it was screened in the «Toronto» Festival 2004 presented many criticisms; as they have not focused on the massacre in which hundreds of thousands died size of its focus on the hotel's story, but I, on the contrary I think that the film makers have succeeded because of this choice, you can not in any way telling the stories of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, it will turn into just a number dead in the end. But you can instead the story of a true story of a group of real human beings who have suffered the midst of this carnage, the story of these people will know their names and feel camaraderie with them and live with them the story of horror and sink them amid bloodshed, this story Stjbarak attention.
You can tell the story of hundreds of survivors to see in their eyes the memory of hundreds of thousands of dead ones they have lost face, and this is what worked «Hotel Rwanda» in piped to the viewer. This is not just a movie, this story will affect you until the end, this story will never forget as long as I lived, this story of blood, betrayal and the struggle for life, the story of the individual tournaments that can change the equation.

Throughout this week, we see ahead of us everywhere, carrying pictures of the color of dark blood adorned inter ask the world to save «Aleppo». Throughout this week, we see the people of the third world are showing their discontent because the reaction was loud toward the blood of Paris «precious» was too modest to the blood of Aleppo «cheap» and was more modest, or tell is present from the origin to the blood of dozens of Syrian cities «cheaper».
When I remembered that the United Nations figures that tell us that the death toll in Syria so far has exceeded 400 thousand, I could not find better than the story of Rwanda Her one million people to Ostdeiha, which simply put us in the face of two things:
First, «The sad thing is not to become a blood-cheap airfare and becomes the high price of envy, sadly, the right to become a blood-eighth; any price».
And secondly, «that the number will not change much in the equation, and that the world simply can not move even after it lost million lives, and you're so Takgelhm to move, you must be very smart in the delivery of messages, as it should before all this can live to send».
