[A] moving, beautifully humanist story whose inevitable hardships are laced with real hope and levity.
Entertainment Weekly
Rating: 4/5 --
Like Ballour, it has a purpose: to focus the world's attention on the suffering of Syrian people.

Guardian
THE CAVE is a frightening immersion in life under siege in Syria that, as difficult as it often is to watch, can’t come close to replicating how harrowing it must have been to film.
New York Times
Unsurprisingly, this is both an immensely humanist film, and a tough, heartbreaking watch -- THE CAVE doesn’t pull its punches when it comes to graphic images, many of them involving severely wounded children.
Variety
Rating: 4/5 --
A blistering documentary about death defiance in a war zone.

Financial Times
Such is the intensity of The Cave that the dramatic music of Matthew Herbert feels unnecessary. [Full review in Spanish]

[W]ith a grace and compositional sensitivity all the more impressive for being achieved under the most difficult circumstances.

Product Description:
In the perpetually bombed region of Eastern Ghouta, a team of medical professionals decides to move their supplies below the surface in order to provide service to citizens affected by the ongoing war. The makeshift hospital is appropriately dubbed as the Cave, and it is headed by Dr. Amani Ballor, a woman. Aside from the harsh and dangerous reality that besets everyone in the hospital, Ballor also receives a constant stream of misogynistic comments coming from the people she helps wholeheartedly. Directed by Feras Fayyad.
