Benjamin is meant to be a great doctor, he’s certain of it. But his first experience as a junior doctor in the hospital ward where his father works doesn’t turn out the way he hoped it would in this fictional comedy/drama. It’s soon apparent that upholding his Hippocratic oath is going to be a tough task. His father is barely present and his co-junior partner, an Algerian physician forced to work as an intern because of his immigrant status, is far more experienced than he is.
As a practicing physician, writer/director Thomas Lilti is that rare filmmaker who can bring life experience of a second métier to his work. Indeed, the Benjamin character is modeled on his own professional initiation, and many scenes were shot in the hospital where Lilti has practiced. Lilti directed several shorts while attending medical school. He completed his first feature, Les yeux bandés, starring Guillaume Depardieu in 2007. Hippocrates raked in seven 2015 César nominations, including Best Director and Best Film. (France; 2015; 101 min)
