Hotel Rwanda

Plot Outline: Don Cheadle gives a powerful performance in this telling of a true story about one man's brave stance against savagery during the 1994 Rwandan conflict. Sophie Okonedo co-stars as the loving wife who challenges a good man to become a great man. As his country descends into madness, five-star-hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina sets out to save his family. But when he sees that the world will not intervene in the massacre of minority Tutsis, he finds the courage to open his hotel to more than 1,200 refugees. Now, with a rabid militia at the gates, he must use his well-honed grace, flattery, and cunning to protect his guests from certain death.
