A revealing creative documentary that follows Moldova’s healthcare crisis through the lives of its doctors. A group of physicians uses humor and satire as a lifeline, performing comedic sketches to expose corruption, resource shortages, and career desperation.

Parallel to their stories, a young doctor navigates the complexities of migrating for work in the EU, while an investigative journalist uncovers the emotional toll of a system that blurs compassion into statistics.

The film also contrasts the influx of international medical aid—modern equipment and supplies—with the cold reality that much of it remains unused due to mismanagement and staff shortages.

Import/Export MD weaves these interlocking narratives into a powerful, human-centered story about dignity, resilience, and the systemic failures that turn healers into emigrants. In combining sharp satire with raw realism, the film offers a fresh, poignant look at an issue with profound regional and universal resonance.
