What is it like to have God like surgical powers, yet to struggle against your own humanity? What is it like to try and save a life, and yet to fail? Shot in a Ukrainian hospital full of desperate patients, The English Surgeon is an intimate portrait of brain surgeon Henry Marsh as he wrestles with the dilemmas of the doctor patient relationship, and openly confronts moral and ethical issues which touch every one of us.

Comments about PBS P.O.V.: The English Surgeon DVD:

I don't think any film has ever reached down into the bowels of my moral fiber such as this. Perhaps the most thought provoking emotional roller-coaster I have ever sat through.
