  1. Hotel Rwanda Themes

  2. Power and Responsibility “With great power comes great responsibility.” • Individuals/groups with power: • Privileged Western world • Media • Paul Rusesabagina • Colonel Oliver • General Bizimungu • George Rutuganda • Mr Tillens (President of Sabena Airlines/Hotel Owner) • Describe how each of these characters is powerful and how they use it. • Make a continuum showing who uses their power the most responsibly and who is the least responsible.

  3. The Human Condition • In your rows discuss these statements and then write a paragraph for each summing up your discussion, use examples from the film and society to support your points: • Humans need to be inherently selfish in order to survive. • Humans seem to have an infinite capacity for cruelty. • One person can make a huge difference. • Co-operation is just as important as competition.
