Precious Life

In this true story, a Palestinian couple who has lost two infants due to complications with their immune systems works with Israeli doctors and a Gaza reporter to save the life of a new baby suffering similar problems. Over the course of 18 months, the reporter documents the tension, fear and hope of the family as they put their child’s life in the hands of Israeli Jews they had always seen as the enemy. Also depicted are the conflicts from events outside the hospital that inevitably take their toll as the doctors race against time.
