Ghosts of Rwanda

Ghosts of Rwanda was a very informative yet difficult film to watch.  In this documentary, individuals are exposed to the after affects of the Rwandan genocide.  Ghosts of Rwanda included several different perspectives throughout the documentary including Rwandan citizens, their government, our government and several others.  Although very informative to watch, providing people with the advantage of hearing everyones side of the story, I would never watch this film for a second time.  The images displayed are very graphic and leave people with a horrible feeling.  In order to watch the entire documentary viewers must have a true passion and interest for learning more about the Rwandan Genocide.  
My recommendation for this film is that people watch Hotel Rwanda and Shake Hands With the Devil beforehand, because these two films will provide viewers with the correct information that they need in order to watch Ghosts of Rwanda.
Overall, I would give this movie a 7 out of 10, and would recommend it to individuals who already know background info about the genocide in Rwanda.
