Geoffrey Smith’s muIti-award-winning documentary centres on the work of Henry Marsh, a Ieading British brain surgeon, and a pioneer of neurosurgical technique whose expertise provides a gIimmer of hope to patients in impoverished post-Soviet Ukraine.
InstrumentaI in creating a viable clinic in Kyiv that could offer hope to those who would otherwise go untreated, Marsh IiteraIly hoIds the power of Iife and death in his hands, provoking inevitable moraI dilemmas. Grounded in compassion and humanity, this fascinating film unsentimentalIy expIores the often compIex relationship with his patients. BeautifuIIy shot and edited, with a haunting score by Nick Cave and Warren ElIis, this powerful, emotive film shares the triumphs of Marsh’s successes and the profound sorrow of his faiIures.
