I was very pleased that both this movie, as well as "Hotel Rwanda", were released. After seeing the horrors of Nazi Germany in the 1940's, it's hard to believe the world would allow another Genocide on such a mass scale to occur again. This version of events wasn't as glamorous as "Hotel Rwanda", however the script and acting were incredible. I recently watched this movie again (after seeing it when it originally aired on HBO) and the film creates as much of an impact now as it did years ago.
In addition to "Hotel Rwanda" and "Sometimes in April", there are many strong documentaries about this dark period of history. I've recently watched "Ghosts of Rwanda" for a second time and was amazed at the amount of factual data contained in that documentary as well.
