American Doctor

Description

AMERICAN DOCTOR follows three prominent physicians — Palestinian, Jewish, and Zoroastrian — who, despite their differences, are friends bound by a shared oath to save lives. Dr. Thaer Ahmad is measured and strategic; Dr. Mark Perlmutter is blunt and wears his heart on his sleeve; and Dr. Feroze Sidhwa is media-savvy and prolific. Filmed in unfolding, on-the-ground vérité scenes, the story traces their journey from a Gazan hospital under siege to the halls of Congress. Together, they fight to keep a promise to their Palestinian colleagues and patients to continue the struggle where it matters most: in the United States.
