American Doctor

American Doctor is a vérité non-fiction film following three prominent physicians–Palestinian, Jewish and Zoroastrian—friends who couldn’t be more different but are bound by the shared oath to heal. Dr. Thaer Ahmad is measured, Dr. Mark Perlmutter is blunt, and Dr. Feroze Sidhwa is steeped in scholarship. Filmed in unfolding, on-the-ground scenes, the story follows them from a Gazan hospital under siege, to the halls of Congress. Together they fight to keep a promise to their Palestinian colleagues and patients, which is to continue the struggle where it matters most: the United States.
