Join us for a special documentary screening and post-screening discussion.
Synopsis: This documentary feature focuses on two Australian doctors, Dr Siraj Sira and Dr Sanjay Adusumilli, who volunteered to go on a medical mission to Gaza.
Filmed in real time with most of the footage captured by the doctors themselves, Until the Sky Falls Quiet is a rare and personal record of resilience, loss, and the human cost of bearing witness in the world’s largest ‘open air prison’.
Nominated for a Change Award at the Adelaide Film Festival 2025
Organisers: Avenoir Productions (Production company behind the documentary) and Western Sydney Medical Society (WSMS) - is a not for profit, apolitical, secular incorporated entity that represents all Western Sydney University medical students.
