The powerful documentary Hunger Ward will premiere today on Paramount+.
Nominated for an Academy Award and filmed from inside two of the most active therapeutic feeding centres in Yemen, Hunger Ward documents two female health care workers fighting to thwart the spread of starvation, against the backdrop of a forgotten war.
The film provides an unflinching portrait of Dr. Aida Alsadeeg and Nurse Mekkia Mahdi, as they try to save the lives of hunger-stricken children within a population on the brink of famine.
