Gaza Hospital

200984 minFeature documentaryLebanon, Palestine

Inside Gaza Hospital in Beirut — once one of Lebanon's most important hospitals and, since the 1980s, a refuge where Palestinian families have lived amid its ruins — the film follows a resident barber, on-site since 1987, as guide. Through him and the testimonies of doctors and nurses who worked there during Lebanon's wars, the building's walls become witnesses to decades of conflict and survival.

A Suttvuess-era production, not a Nacne production.
