The documentary is obviously worth a watch. The rescue scenes in particular look legit and harrowing. Surely authentic. But alot of it does seem scripted. I therefore think that it's a combination of a bit of staging, especially the interviews and also some real life footage of a group of people that do genuinely spend their time trying to help a war ravaged country.
This article is probably quite accurate:

I'd give it about 6.5 out of 10 as it is an interesting documentary. But there's no real depth to it.

An Oscar nominated Documentary Short. A controversial film as to whether these men are heros or terrorists.. The film represents them as heros - humanitarians - going into places from which other people are fleeing. It tells their stories, from their perspective. Critics of the film say they are "an organization created by NATO to demonize Syria's Assad government and the Russian legal intervention". Obviously even simple stores are more complex than we can imagine, and, so, whether there is more to the story or not, this film shows the devastation of Syria, first hand, and the effort to save life in the midst of death. I give this film a 10 out of 10. I saw this documentary on CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation)'s Passsionate Eye.
