At my bedside: an autopsy of the healthcare system

Emergency doctor Marc faces a daily paradox: the more lives he saves, the more the system he works within seems to crumble. His shifts become a series of impossible choices between protocol and humanity, until a personal tragedy forces him to experience healthcare from the other side — as a patient. This 2026 documentary examines the fractures in the foundation of French healthcare through the stories of those who operate it and those who depend on it. The camera follows nurses numb with fatigue, administrators buried in paperwork, and families who have lost faith. It is not just a crisis report, but an attempt to understand how the living fabric of professional duty and compassion wears thin under the pressure of numbers and targets.
