In northern Kenya, a small town of Lokichoggio is home to a busy airport where planes returning from Sudan land, bringing wounded patients from the civil war. These patients are transported to the International Committee of the Red Cross' Lopiding Hospital, the world's largest field hospital, where medical staff provide life-saving care. The hospital sees a surge of patients denied access to surgery due to the war, resulting in a range of injuries, including gunshots, grenade wounds, and spear injuries. The documentary, WAR HOSPITAL, follows the daily work of international and local medical staff, offering a powerful and intense look at the human cost of war.
