The Italian doctor, Alberto Cairo, is
a man with a mission: he wants to
restore the dignity of mine victims in
Afghanistan. Living alone in the capital,
Dr. Cairo has been head of the
Red Cross Orthopaedic Centre in
Kabul for the past 15 years. Through
his determination, humour and empathy,
he has helped more than 50,000
mine victims walk again, and helped reintegrate them into Afghan society.
The film begins as he meets Mehdi
and Fatima, two new patients, and we
join them on their journey.
