Trauma: The New Epidemic will be screening at the following festivals.
Thurrock International Film Festival – United Kingdom (October 19)
Awareness Festival – Santa Monica (October 25)
African Cultural Film Festival – Houston (October 24 to 26)

Follow the journey of Dr. Abiy Worku and Dr. Solomon Goshu, two of only six fully trained orthopedic trauma surgeons serving the 130 million residents of Ethiopia, out of a repurposed hotel. They team up with an American surgeon, Dr. Archie Heddings, to combat the global rise in trauma. The film takes you into Ethiopia’s only public trauma center, where hallways overflow, electricity flickers, and equipment shortages demand ingenious solutions to keep patients alive. Open your eyes to an unseen perspective profoundly shaped by the demands of the Western world.
