          AUDIENCE AWARD - 2005 Sundance Film Festival

In 1994, over 800,000 men, women, and children 
were massacred in the small African country of 
Rwanda. Canadian General Roméo Dallaire was 
charged with an impossible task: to head the UN 
peacekeeping mission with a handful of soldiers 
ordered not to use force to protect Rwandans from 
the mass slaughter. Based on Dallaire's 
best-selling book, the film follows the General's 
return to the region 10 years later, as he comes 
to grips with the events that have haunted him. 
The film, according to American Prospect, is 
about a man's journey "not to seek forgiveness 
but to mourn and to fight against forgetting. 
One man, one witness, to the world's 
indifference."  Directed by Peter Raymont.
