Consultation

Director Helene de Crecy's masterful direct cinema approach gives life to a wonderfully revealing film about health (care) in our modern world. De Crecy's camera deftly observes the daily consultations inside the office of a small town general physician in France, who cares for every ailment and sees virtually every conceivable human health concern from pregnancy to hypochondria. Reducing the giant and dramatic world of healthcare to the space of one small office, this sensitive documentary effectively reminds US of the humanity of affliction, treatment and recovery.
