Hotel Rwanda


Rwanda was the country that struggled during the year of 1944. It was the incident between the two ethnic group called Hutu and Tutsi. This incident was similar to the struggle as the North Korea started to produce the nuclear bombs and decided to stand alone. Similar as it was, Hutu started to gain more power to take a full control over the Rwanda and abandon the other ethnic group Tutsi. Originally, the Tutsi had more power with less people when Belgium was in control and Hutu had more population with less power. However, as the Belgium left and Hutu took control, the violence grew. The amplified in violence lead to death, the media “Hotel Rwanda” made me realize how serious and sincere Tutsi’s were. The images of dead people lying on the grass, the children’s faces filled with fear, and the hopeless expressions of people as the west army such as, UN, France, and Belgium decided not to get involved, all gave the audience an impressions of terror and morose. Can you believe that the struggle between two different ethnic groups started to abandon one another to take a full control over the country? Why does that people want the power so much more than a piece when they know they will be afraid of it once they obtain it?
