HIPPOCRATE by Thomas Litti, 2014, 1h42
Benjamin is meant to be a great doctor. But his first experience in the hospital ward where his father works doesn’t turn out as planned. He is facing his co-intern Abdel, a far more experienced foreign doctor. The film was screened during the Critics’ Week at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival and is a recent winner at the Angoulême Festival.
