Summary
"The Rwandan genocide remains one of the most shameful events of the 20th century. Many Westerners' understanding of it is based upon the film Hotel Rwanda and Shooting Dogs. Drawing on new scholarship, this collection of essays explores a variety of films and documentaries associated with the Genocide to understand its expression in both Western and Rwandan cinema"--
