KERRY ZUKUS

INSIDE THE HOTEL RWANDA: The Surprising True Story and Why It Matters Today

The film, Hotel Rwanda, the alleged true story of refugees surviving the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda is the African film to which high school and college students are exposed. But was the hotel manager depicted in it, Paul Rusesabagina, credited with single-handedly saving the lives of those who sought safety in the hotel, just a Hollywood creation? Mr. Zukus and his Rwandan co-author, Edouard Kayihura, tell a different story which will be the subject of his talk.
