Syrian director Feras Fayyad takes us to a subterranean landscape that feels akin to the post-apocalyptic world of Mad Max. Survivors create a network of secret tunnels under the city of Ghouta, near Damascus, for an underground hospital maintained by women doctors. The film's heart is Dr. Amani, a young Syrian woman operating in unimaginable conditions with great humor and fortitude.
