The 2020 Oscar-nominated The Cave tells the powerful story of the young paediatrician Amani Ballour, who ran an underground hospital, aka The Cave, with her staff of 100 doctors and nurses, during the years of the violent siege of eastern Ghouta. This essential documentary highlights one of the biggest tragedies of the Syrian War: for 9 years, Syrian hospitals, schools, medical and humanitarian workers have been targets of deliberate attacks. All parties to the conflict are bound to respect International Humanitarian Law and International Human Rights Law. Schools and health facilities should be the safest spaces, not targets! The film protagonist, Dr Amani Balloor, recipient of the Raoul Wallenberg Prize 2020, delivered by the Council of Europe, will be present for this essential debate.
