A State of Passion is a feature-length documentary directed by Carol Mansour and Muna Khalidi, chronicling the extraordinary story of British-Palestinian reconstructive surgeon Dr. Ghassan Abu Sittah. Over 43 harrowing days, Abu Sittah worked around the clock under relentless bombardment inside the emergency rooms of Al-Shifa and Al-Ahli hospitals in Gaza, performing surgeries amid one of the most devastating conflicts in the region's recent history. When he finally emerged, he found himself transformed into a symbol of Palestinian resistance — a medical professional turned unwilling witness to history. The film weaves together personal testimony, surgical realities on the ground, and the broader political crisis, making it a powerful and rare document of courage under fire.
