ACCURATE
There had been years of tension between the two major ethnic groups, the Hutus and the Tutsis, and multiple accounts of displacement of power. After Hutu president called a ceasefire, his plane was shot down which initated Hutu militia forces to commence with a mass-murdering of the Tutsi people.
TO SUMMARIZE
HISTORICAL MOVIE
I believe this is meant to be a historical film, but enhanced for an American audience. I feel this way because of the shocking events like the massive killings, Hutu extremist radio, the assassination of Rwandan president, presence of the Interhamwe, UN, Red Cross, and Tutsi Rebel Group.
