Warzone / Movie: The Rwandan genocide (1994), as seen in Hotel Rwanda (2004)
Level Of Heat: The U.N. is trying to play it cool, to the point of doing bugger all but stand around and watch as 800,000 Tutsis are massacred by Hutu extremists.
It's left to locals, amongst them hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina (Don Cheadle), to deal with the facts: Kigali is a powder keg that's sadly been ignited.
Has It Cooled Down Since? "Among the safest and friendliest of African capitals," says Rwanda Tourism. We have to assume they're not just talking about visitors to the city.
"The Rwandan capital provides both a comfortable and welcoming introduction to this land of a thousand hills and an ideal springboard from which to explore this magical country."
