There are no Scraps of Men is the story of Alberto Cairo, a physiotherapist working in the war impacted city of Kabul, Afghanistan. Cairo has been called “the man who has helped 100,000 people walk again” as a result of his endless work to rehabilitate soldiers and civilians alike. The Italian physiotherapist runs the International Committee of the Red Cross’ rehabilitation program in Afghanistan and was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in 2010. The increasing demand for Cairo’s help has come just as the country has turned more dangerous for aid workers, who have faced repeated attacks. This documentary is the story of people who have been thrown together by a twist of fate and are tasked with either giving up, or moving ahead in life.
