The Killing Fields is amazing and brutal. Based on a true story.

Hotel Rwanda too, but I haven't been able to watch it yet.

Not of the same quality, but Welcome to Sarajevo.

Genocide never goes out of fashion, unfortunately.

The Act of Killing is another. It is a documentary in which they interview people in a country where the (US supported) genocides have not only not been condemned, but the perpetrators are still living normal lives. They basically trick the perpetrators, who have largely avoided caring or thinking about it, into understanding the extent of what they've done. One of the most moving films I've ever seen.

I haven't been able to watch that one. I know it's well done, but I don't think I can do it. Good add, though
