More on Ecole Technique Officielle
Description from Wikipedia:
The Ecole Technique Officielle is a Salesian secondary school in Kigali, Rwanda. On April 11, 1994, during the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, over 2,500 Rwandans abandoned by the UN, in the school in which they set up base to supervise the peace between the Hutu and Tutsi, were murdered by extremist militias. This event is the subject of the movie Shooting Dogs (also called Beyond the Gates) by Michael Caton-Jones. The film illuminates the decisions and choices that were made to save whites hiding in the school thereby condemning the remaining Rwandans to death.
