I'm still crying
Poignant.
Important.
Heart breaking.
Raw.
I knew what I was getting myself into when I started this movie but I was not prepared. The performances are all impeccable, the emotions conveyed had me grabbing at my chest. These women both in real life and the ones that movie is based off of deserve their flowers.
The Rwandan genocide has always been an incredibly hard subject to tackle in media, trying to find a balance between not oversimplifying it and not trying to make it torture porn. This film finds that balance without fail. The fact that I was hooked the entire time when 99% of the film takes place in one room says something.
