Synopsis
Dylan Williams’ compelling new documentary follows a handful of surgeons who carry the healthcare needs of an entire nation on their shoulders. At the center is Faustin Ntirenganya, one of only two reconstructive plastic surgeons in Rwanda, responsible for patients from across the country—fourteen million people. His work involves repairing bomb-damaged faces, burn injuries, and congenital deformities, but also striving to build a sustainable system where more surgeons can take over. The goal is ambitious: to train thirty new surgeons by 2030. An intimate and unsentimental portrait of medicine as practical, political, and moral work.
