Beyond the Gates

War-torn Rwanda is the backdrop for the story of a school teacher (Hugh Dancy) who must choose between escaping with the U.N. or standing strong with his students. With John Hurt. Directed by Michael Caton-Jones.

“Caton-Jones orchestrates the spiralling violence with considerable dexterity, revealing a keen understanding of how, in the wrong circumstances, human beings can and do inflict the most barbaric cruelties upon one another.” (Time Out)
