The Century of Surgeons

1972 · 1 season

A sober, instructive look at the birth of modern surgery, more like a filmed lecture than a story.

Genres
Drama
Overview
A special insight into medicine presented on film: sterile operations, hospitals used to be built by the wind, anaesthesia, surgical gloves, similar to the films Sauerbruch or Kneip.
How it feels
