Description
Release Date:
31 July 2006
Joe Connor (Hugh Dancy) has come to teach in Rwanda because he believes he can make a difference. When the school becomes a haven for thousands of Rwandans fleeing the escalating violence, Joe promises his brightest pupil, Marie (Clare-Hope Ashitey), that the UN soldiers will protect her from the hordes of extremist militia baying for blood outside the school. But when the UN abandons the refugees, Joe and the school's headmaster, Father Christopher (John Hurt), face an agonising dilemma: should they leave or should they stand firm with the Rwandans?
Filmed at the actual location where the events on which this story is based took place, a number of genocide survivors make up the film's cast & crew. This is not just a film about Rwanda. It is a film about humanity, and the questions each one of us must confront, wherever in the world we may be. when evil threatens to steal the very basis of this humanity away from us. What would you do?
