War Hospital
Director: David Christensen
Canada
Duration: 89′
In the charged atmosphere of a medical mission in the heart of a war zone, War Hospital follows the life and fortunes of the world’s largest field hospital — the Red Cross Hospital in remote northern Kenya, set up to handle the wounded from war-torn south Sudan. Taking us on medical evacuation flights, into the surgery, and into the lives of ordinary doctors doing extraordinary work and surgical patients surviving shocking circumstances, the film cinematically portrays the stark drama and humour that arise when very different European, North American, Asian, and African cultures collide.
