About this event
This screening is presented in collaboration with Brent & Harrow Palestine Solidarity Campaign with a post-film Q&A with the film's director, Daniele Rugo. Please note tickets for this screening will be our off-peak prices. Since October 2023, Gaza has been sealed from the world-except for one group, international doctors. While global media are barred from reporting and governments look away, doctors breach the blockade and what they find is not just a humanitarian crisis, but a calculated dismantling of life itself. Covering the entire two years of the genocide, their first-hand accounts and visceral footage offer a rare and vital chronicle of the daily struggles of healthcare workers as they navigate bombed-out hospitals, dwindling supplies, starvation and the overwhelming influx of casualties— predominantly women and children. “Compulsory viewing” – Ken Loach Runtime: 92 minutes Director: Daniele Rugo Cast: Nick Maynard, Tanya Haj-Hassan, Ahmed Mokhallalati, Tom Potokar, Victoria Rose, James Smith, Khaled Dawas, Mhoira Leng, Ana Jeel Rating: (15) Film
