Doctors in the LPR, Siberia, Zaporozhye, Kherson region and Central Russia are doing the same thing, contributing to the approaching victory," said Zhanna Chefranova.
Before the film screening, the author of the idea and the executive producer of the documentary project "Our Healers. Donbass" Vladislav Dombrovsky addressed the participants of the event. He spoke about the concept of creating the film and its main characters.
"This is a film about doctors, real heroes of the Donetsk People's Republic. It is about how they continue to help people, fight life's circumstances, stay in these conditions no matter what, believe in victory and goodness. It is about the strength of spirit of the people of Donbass, their character, and how dedicated they are," emphasized Vladislav Dombrovsky.
"Our Healers. Donbass" consists of twelve documentary films that allow viewers to see what is happening in Donbass through the eyes of those who do not take up arms but whose tools are scalpels and clamps. The main characters of this series are medical workers - paramedics, ambulance drivers, doctors. The uniqueness of the project lies in the personal narrative and the perspective on what is happening through the eyes of Donbass doctors.
