The region of Idleb in Syria is the last territory held by the opposition to Bashar al-Assad. It is under siege by the regime's forces and its allies. Hospitals are often the target of bombings and the medical staff is at great risk of being abducted.

Renowned surgeon Doctor Hussam runs a small hospital; he was recently kidnapped and tortured. His wife – exhausted by seven years of war – wishes her family would leave Syria.  A heartbreaking account of the hospital and its staff's day-to-day life – made by a French and Syrian team.
