Rating: 5/5 -- Isolated from their families, they sometimes break down and director Feras Fayyad (Last Men In Aleppo, 2017) knows just how to linger on those moments. Full Review

This film is even more wrenching than "For Sama," but Amani Ballour is an unforgettable figure. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- A profile in courage under fire, The Cave sometimes relieves its enervating tension with occasional MASH-like interludes of levity: a surprise birthday party, some bickering over rice recipes, thoughtful drags on cigarettes. Full Review

Such is the intensity of The Cave that the dramatic music of Matthew Herbert feels unnecessary. [Full review in Spanish] Full Review

THE CAVE is both intensely real and a carefully wrought work of cinema.

Product Description:

In the perpetually bombed region of Eastern Ghouta, a team of medical professionals decides to move their supplies below the surface in order to provide service to citizens affected by the ongoing war. The makeshift hospital is appropriately dubbed as the Cave, and it is headed by Dr. Amani Ballor, a woman. Aside from the harsh and dangerous reality that besets everyone in the hospital, Ballor also receives a constant stream of misogynistic comments coming from the people she helps wholeheartedly. Directed by Feras Fayyad.
