George in his warehouse. His gold jewellery and cigar show he is well off, he is also shot so that he is slightly higher than Paul showing he has power over him. His Interhamwe shirt connects him to the genocide. Look at the picture on the table, this is one of George with the man who led the genocide.

The pictures the people are holding up are the same one that is on George’s desk. This shows us he has some kind of power over these people who are out to kill all the Hutus.

An Interhamwe rally. We see them in a bad light because they have children carrying cardbaord guns. It seems they will use children to get what they want. They are a danger to them.

George is looking down at the machette with pride. The importance of the machette is obvious later in the film as well

The machette is at the front of the screen but it is Dubai’s frightened face that is in focus at the back. We like Dubai so we don’t want him to get hurt.

Later in the film the machette becomes a danger to the Tutsis trying to leave the hotel when they are ambushed by the Interhamwe.

The high angle shot of the refugees makes them seem weak and vulnerable and as we know they are running away from the Interhamwe it makes George seem all the more evil.

The Interhamwe rally. The high camera angle shows the numbers of people and we can see there are men and woman all being carried away by what the Interhamwe believe.

George’s neighbour being taken away by the Hutu army. He greeted Paul earlier in the film and waved, he seemed like a nice man. This makes us dislike George all the more.

The journalist explains the difference between Hutus and Tutsis to the cameraman. The two girls look similar but one is a Tutsi and one is a Hutu, this makes the idea they are different seem ridiculous.

The shot of Paul’s neighbours all hiding in his house. He shines a light on them because is their only hope. They are all gathered together like a frightened group of children threatened by the evil George in the shape of the Interhamwe.
