American Doctor
Three American doctors volunteer in Gaza’s overwhelmed hospitals. The humanitarian catastrophe they witness compels them to carry their fight far beyond the wards and back to Washington.
Of Palestinian, Jewish and Zoroastrian backgrounds, they work in bare-bones emergency rooms where mass-casualty medicine, moral injury and the limits of medical neutrality collide. As their obligation to ‘do no harm’ takes on a new and urgent meaning, the doctors step into news studios and the halls of Congress to bear witness, challenging both medical and political frameworks for response.
Deeply embedded with its subjects, American Doctor captures the moral, professional and emotional reckoning of people who have seen too much to stay silent.
