About the Film

With war in Gaza imminent, four-month-old Mohammad needs a costly bone marrow implant - which only an Israeli hospital can perform - or he will die. This critically acclaimed documentary chronicles a race against time, as a veteran Israeli TV correspondent, Channel 10 news anchor Shlomi Eldar, appeals for donations to save the boy's life. When the anonymous father of a fallen Israeli soldier steps forward, a tangle of moral and ethical contradictions envelop the journalist, doctors and Mohammad's Muslim parents, as the medical cliffhanger takes an unexpected turn. This slice of Middle East politics seen through a very personal lens offers a remarkably evenhanded platform for debate and a moving cinematic bridge. PRECIOUS LIFE was shortlisted for a 2011 Oscar for Best Documentary Feature.
