This Shaking Keeps Me Steady. Ambulance drivers in Pakistan

The city of Karachi, Pakistan, is the scene of impressive emergency situations that ambulance drivers have to deal with on a daily basis. The calm moments are often long, but when responsibility calls, they must be quick, efficient and, above all, strong-minded.

Director Shehrezad Maher builds a bold proposal, which leaves aside the images of brutality, focusing on the drivers and the reenactments of these events made by a local television show.
