Living in Emergency at the 2009 DocuWeeks New York

August 14-20
New York, NY

Living in Emergency

MSF is pleased to announce Living in Emergency: Stories of Doctors Without Borders has been selected by the International Documentary Association (IDA) to do an Academy Award qualifying run in New York City. 

After playing at several film festivals around the world, this is the first theatrical release of the film in New York.   Please join us for this limited run. 

This film is one of only 18 feature documentaries and 10 shorts chosen from 
around the world to participate in their prestigious DocuWeeks 
documentary showcase.

Living in Emergency is a film that takes place in war-torn Democratic Republic of Congo and post-conflict Liberia, and follows four Doctors Without Borders aid workers as they struggle to provide emergency medical care under extreme conditions. With different levels of experience, these medical humanitarians must find their own ways to face the challenges, the tough choices, and the limits of their idealism.

 Living in Emergency will screen twice daily for 7 days from August 14 thru August 20. 

For ticket information and times, please visit the DocuWeeks website.
