In a time without 911 or government funded emergency services, the Rescate Ambar team sacrifices their own safety in one of the most dangerous traffic regions in the world.

  • Year2017
  • Duration14:25
  • TypeShort Documentary

Embedded and unfiltered, the documentary takes us with the team through a relentless onslaught of night-shift emergencies, showing the raw, first-hand account of the people who bridged the gap to save lives. What drives a person to rush towards danger at the expense of their own well-being?

Rescate is a documentary that grapples with that question through the story of the Rescate Ambar volunteer paramedics and their leader, Reynaldo Ortiz. The film was a recipient of the Vimeo Staff Pick and official Film Supply Presents award winner.
