In the sterile calm of a Western hospital, a heart defect is a problem to be fixed. In a war zone, it is a death sentence.
Dr. William M. Novick, one of the world’s foremost pediatric cardiac surgeons, has dedicated his life not to the polished halls of elite medicine, but to the forgotten corners of the globe. His mission: to save the "blue babies"—infants with complex congenital heart defects—in countries where political instability, poverty, and conflict have extinguished all hope.
This is the raw, unflinching memoir of a decades-long journey into the heart of global chaos. Alongside his heroic, volunteer medical teams, Dr. Novick has brought life-saving surgery and sustainable medical training to over 35 countries, including Iraq, Ukraine, Libya, and Bosnia.
Like-Hearted: A Filmmaker’s Path is a visceral, firsthand memoir from Writers Guild of America member Christopher Dela Cruz. Bringing two decades of industry experience from the editing room to the field, Dela Cruz offers an intimate account of what it truly takes to make a documentary where the line between observer and participant disappears, and where every creative decision carries real-world weight.
