The Man Behind The Story of Hotel Rwanda

VOICE OVER: Rebecca Brayton
In 1994, it is estimated over one million Rwandans were killed by extremists. During this genocide, hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina saved 1,268 refugees by hiding them in the Hôtel des Mille Collines. Rusesabagina was portrayed by Don Cheadle in the 2004 drama 'Hotel Rwanda.' Today, the film is referred to as the African 'Schindler's List,' and his act was no less heroic. Today, he continues to raise awareness and prevent future genocides with the Hotel Rwanda Rusesabagina Foundation. In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com chats with Rusesabagina about the ordeal, and the lack of progress that has been made in his native country.
