Description
[Machine Translation] Booker Prize-winning author John Berger and photographer Jean More bring to life the essence of human nature and medicine through a country doctor in this masterful documentary. The setting is a small village in southwest England. The villagers, who live on the bottom rung of the social ladder, are entangled in poverty and the various stigmas that accompany it. Sasal, a doctor, lives in the village and cares for the wounded, the dying, and the lonely. The two artists document the rare relationship that Dr. Sasar has developed with the villagers with a penetrating gaze. The observations in this book contain numerous insights that push the notion of the value of human life. What kind of being is a healer? Dr. Sasar provides a beautiful and shuddering case study of the life that is healed by healing others, and the happiness and cost of those who seek to endlessly explore and investigate it, and the shock that one receives from the entire volume lingers even after reading it. The original book was published in 1967. It has been read and reread ever since, and raises increasingly profound questions about today's extremely manualized medicine. This is a book that radiates a serene yet powerful message.
