Plot:Set in the dangerous times of civil war in Rwanda, the thrilling tale of Paul and his hotel is told. Rebels are at large in Rwanda killing innocent civilians without remorse. The most important thing on hotel owner Paul’s shoulders is the safety of those dearest to him. Risking his life he opens his hotel to help those seeking refuge from the devastation around them. 

Comments:An exciting, heart wrenching story which captures the true emotions of those during the dark days in Rwanda. George captures this heart- wrenching tale of woe by using actual footage from when the rebels were at large, this creates a sense of realism which captures the heart of all that who watch the film. Although this movie is created around a fictional hotel, the events which occurred were still true so therefore this movie is more of a documentary than a fictional story.
