Living in Emergency: Stories of Doctors Without Borders (2008)
Directed by Mark N. Hopkins
“Higher Stakes. Tougher Choices. Medicine like you've never seen it.”
Documentary · 1h 33m
In the war-zones of Liberia and Congo, four volunteers with Doctors Without Borders struggle to provide emergency medical care under extreme conditions. With different levels of experience, each volunteer must find their own way to face the challenges, the tough choices, and the limits of their idealism. "Living in Emergency" is a window into the seldom portrayed and less-than glamorous side of humanitarian aid work. It explores a world that is challenging, complex, and fraught with dilemmas - the struggles, both internal and external, that aid workers face when working in war zones and other difficult contexts.
