Description
Directed by Ilian Metev
Sofia, the capital city of Bulgaria, has more than two million inhabitants and only 13 ambulances.
Ilian Metev's gritty, multi-award-winning documentary follows two medics and their driver as they struggle to cope amid a decaying health system.
Filmed over a period of two years, we follow the three, who risk their lives' for others. Metev's film, refreshingly, avoids sensationalism or contrivances. Instead, this fly-on-the-dashboard record tracks the lives of the ambulance crew simply as they go out into the night to help the injured and needy.
Filled with humour and camaraderie, the strain of a broken system nevertheless takes its toll on our unsung heroes: how long can they keep helping society's injured while being undermined by lack of resources?
