For 100 days, one man was the conscience of a world that turned its back on the slaughter of 800,000 human beings. That man was General Roméo Dallaire, commander of the small, underresourced, and hamstrung U.N. peacekeeping force stationed in Rwanda during the 1994 genocide. Shake Hands with the Devil the Journey of Romeo Dallaire movingly documents his return to Rwanda for the 10th anniversary of the genocide, reliving the political and psychological drama in unforgettable detail. Director Peter Raymont follows Dallaire as he revisits the sites of mass murder and heroism, vividly brought back to life by his traumatic memories and striking newsreel footage. Shake Hands with the Devil does not attempt to describe the Rwandan tragedy from the point of view of Rwandans. On the contrary, its subject is the West's view of Rwanda and how the international community and media abandoned the Rwandan people in their time of greatest need. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)
