    • Synopsis
    • Denis Mukwege is a Congolese doctor, and three-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee who always dreamt of becoming a gynecologist.
      However, he will risk his life to become the savior and the world’s leading activist for women whose bodies have become weapons of war. Guy-Bernard Cadière is a Belgium doctor who, at 33 years old, is diagnosed with leukemia. While locked inside a
      sterilized bubble, he develops a revolutionary operating technique - laparoscopy - even though he’s been given three years to live. Panzi
      sheds light on the exceptional destiny of these two men who have changed the course of History.
