Body Team 12 (2015)
10/10
the harsh conditions
22 February 2017
David Darg's "Body Team 12" focuses on the Red Cross workers of Liberia during the Ebola outbreak. The story gets told by Garmai Sumo, a woman who worked as a nurse during the outbreak. Through the documentary, people are forced to bury their loved ones of all ages. Even amid this horror, people do what they can to continue with their lives.

I doubt that people unaffected by the Ebola virus can truly know what it was like. This documentary, nominated for Best Documentary Short Subject at the Academy Awards, is probably the closest that the rest of the world will come to it. The main thing to note is that the people who collected the dead bodies performed an invaluable service just as much as any medical professional who tended to people. I recommend the documentary.
