Until the Sky Falls Quiet follows Dr Siraj Sira and Dr Sanjay Adusumilli, two Australian doctors from Western Sydney who volunteer to go on a medical mission to Gaza in 2024. 

Filmed in real time with much of the footage captured by the doctors themselves, Until the Sky Falls Quiet is a rare and intimate record of bearing witness in the world's largest 'open air prison'. Through their eyes and first-hand testimonies, the documentary shows the resilience and humanity of Palestinians living and working under siege - it captures not only the loss endured, but also the courage and compassion that persist amidst devastation. 

Until the Sky Falls Quiet is about our humanity, about refusing to look away, even when what is seen is unbearable.
