Visit the Wonder: Art and Science on the Brain

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 Ukraine, The English Surgeon is an intimate portrait of neurosurgeon Henry Marsh as he openly confronts the dilemmas of the doctor patient relationship on his latest mission to Kiev.

UK 2007 Dir Geoffrey Smith 93 min

+ ScreenTalk with Henry Marsh
After our screening, hear the English Surgeon himself talk about his life and work as a neuroscientist.
