The movie: American Doctor Go see it. Outlining working as a doctor during genocide, starring Dr. Perlmutter @mperlmuttermd , Dr. Sidhwa @FerozeSidhwa and @ThaerAhmadMD Dr. Thaer Ahmad. As humanitarians, we constantly struggle with having dual roles of clinicians during humanitarian crisis, as well as advocating to end a genocide. This movie captures this conflict exceptionally well. Brilliant directorial debut by Poh Si Teng @pohsi Find out how to get tickets here: americandoctorfilm.com

What's so remarkable about director Poh Si Teng’s AMERICAN DOCTOR is her skill at maintaining the balance between the political & the humanitarian, as 3 U.S. physicians volunteer to save lives in Gaza, where 1,700 healthcare workers have been killed. #AmericanDoctor #Sundance2026

Take note. I’ve seen the best documentary at Sundance 2026, and it’s AMERICAN DOCTOR. A brutal, harrowing, and absolutely vital look at three American physicians who voluntarily enter Gaza to save lives as hospitals are deliberately targeted and resources are scarce. Director Poh Si Teng captures the impossible triage decisions, the fear, the exhaustion, and the moral urgency that drives them forward both at home and abroad. Following three doctors of Palestinian, Jewish, and Zoroastrian backgrounds, the film becomes a powerful testament to unity, courage, and conscience in the face of this barbaric genocide. Tense, angering, humane, and impossible to shake, this is unforgettable filmmaking with the power to save lives for those open to seeing it.
