🎬 Movie

Dr. Cadéot removes his glove to reveal a hand covered in scars. "These are my universities," he says, his eyes reflecting pride rather than pain. The Swiss surgeon, who transformed into one of the world's most sought-after face transplant specialists, guides us through the corridors of his clinic and his own memory. This 2025 documentary is not merely a portrait of a doctor, but an exploration of the boundaries of the human body and spirit. The camera captures the tense hours of surgery where each movement determines whether a patient gains a new life or remains captive to their old appearance. We witness incredible transformations, yet the film poses a question: what truly changes—the face or the person? The story balances between a medical thriller and a philosophical meditation on the nature of identity.
