Amid the ongoing war in Ukraine, an Israeli field hospital emerges as a beacon of hope, dedicated to providing medical care to those affected by the conflict. This heart-affecting film chronicles the remarkable journey of the medical teams, many of whom are descendants of Holocaust survivors, as they treat Ukrainian patients who have lost everything. Set against a backdrop of chaos and devastation, the film highlights the humanity and compassion of those providing care, showcasing the power of small acts of kindness to bring people together. Interwoven within the film is a poignant exploration of history and culture, as the Israeli medical units extend their aid to the distressed, all while grappling with their own emotional struggles. This cinematic gem serves as a poignant testament to the inherent goodness within humanity and the transformative power of even the smallest acts of kindness in the face of adversity.
The special premiere event will feature Sheba's Field Hospital Director and film subject Yoel Har-Even in attendance to introduce the film and participate in a Q&A afterward.
