Dr. James Orbinski - The Humanitarian Dilemma
Dr. James Orbinski, M.D., premiered his story Triage: Dr. James Orbinski's Humanitarian Dilemma at the Hot Docs International Documentary Festival.

The film tells the story of this past president of Médecins Sans Frontièrs / Doctors Without Borders' (MSF) return to Africa. The film, and Dr. James Orbinski's speaking engagements, have an "ethical exploration to it that will awaken peoples' hearts."

Orbinski has also released his latest book, An Imperfect Offering: Humanitarian Action in the Twenty-First Century, the publisher writes "Here he is doctor as witness, recording voices that must be heard around the world; calling on others to meet their responsibility."
