About this event
This special screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Daniele Rugo and Dr Mhoira Leng . Since October 2023, Gaza has been largely inaccessible to international journalists, with medical teams among the few outside observers able to enter the territory. Through the testimony of international doctors working on the ground, this documentary offers a rare perspective on the human impact of the ongoing conflict and the immense challenges facing Gaza's healthcare system. Spanning nearly two years of events, firsthand accounts and frontline footage document the daily realities faced by medical workers as they contend with damaged hospitals, severe shortages of essential supplies, food insecurity, and a constant influx of casualties, many of them women and children. Their experiences provide a powerful record of resilience, dedication, and the humanitarian consequences of war.
