A raw, first-person account of the Gaza war in the summer of 2014.
Mohamed Jabaly, a young man from Gaza City, is given permission to join an ambulance crew and films his experiences. As war approaches, he is searching for his place in a country under siege, where at times there seems to be no foreseeable future.
The resulting footage is unflinching in its depiction of the effects of war and tells a story that goes beyond the headlines, to the reality of life in Gaza.
Mohamed Jabaly presents Ambulance on 4 Aug to accompany his latest film, Life is Beautiful, playing at Bertha DocHouse from 4 Aug. See the listings page for details.
