Rwanda, April 1994: Kigali hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina (Don Cheadle) was used to keeping his five-star facility operating smoothly through bargaining and savvy. He'd need all his skill as the Hutu-ruled nation was swept with a genocidal wave against the minority Tutsi-and the Hutu Rusesabagina attempted to make safe haven for his Tutsi wife (Sophie Okonedo), their kids, and over 1,200 Tutsi refugees. Sobering true-life opus co-stars Joaquin Phoenix, Nick Nolte. 122 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set.
