Two Hands

Two Hands reflects on the work of a heart surgeon whose mission has been altered by conflict.

Palestine has only four heart surgeons. One of them is Mohammed Tamim. Mohammed came to Belgium in 2003 to specialize in paediatric surgery. The second Intifada made him a war surgeon. Every day he fights his war.

The film is a touching testimony of an intense personal grief. Inspite of everything Mohammed Tamim has a dream that keeps him alive.
