Hotel Rwanda is a 2004 feature film directed by Terry George.

The film is an Academy Award-nominated look at the Rwandan genocide of 1994, that left a million people dead.

Amid the chaos, and because the world has ignored what's going on hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina does his utmost to save the lives of as many people has he can.

This is his story.

During the massacres of that year, Paul, a manager at an international hotel, saved over a thousand people from certain death by hiding them in the hotel.

Don Cheadle plays Paul - the man who uses his contacts on both sides of the conflict to save as many lives as he can.

Supported by his wife Tatiana and his assistant from the hotel, Dube, Paul leads the murderous military generals on a merry dance, hoping to buy as much time as he can.

The real horror of the Rwandan genocide was more than the actual killings themselves - it was the way the massacre was ignored by the international community.

Nick Nolte plays the disillusioned UN Peace Keeping force Colonel Oliver, unable to act even though he and his troops are surrounded by death.

Tagline: When a country descended into madness and the world turned its back, one man had to make a choice
