Life Support

Now I didn't love the start of this. It shows us video footage of a barrage of missiles being fired by Hamas into Israel during their Shimchat Torah holiday on October 7th, 2023 but nothing at all of the follow up to that attack that left almost 1200 people dead - including children and tourists. There are no images of crying Israeli children, or ambulances carrying the injured to hospital - nor are there any of the thousands of armed terrorists perpetrating these atrocities. At this point, I was expecting another one-sided and pro-Palestininan documentary that I'd seen a few times before. This isn't one of them. It follows a team of largely British clinicians as they do their level best to treat the victims of the ensuing war amidst flying shrapnel, masonry and shocking supply shortages.
