FAITH HEALERS is the untold history of Filipino doctors who left their homeland to care for Americans. Through the life of Dr. Zorayda Lee-Llacer, we witness an immigrant's journey and her many contributions to American healthcare. By exploring the complicated colonial history between the USA and the Philippines, we grasp the enormity of the challenges and achievements of a vibrant Filipino American community that grew just outside the nation's capital in Prince George’s County, MD. Along with the story of Zorayda, the film dives into the lives of 2nd generation Filipino Americans and how the Philippines continues to shape their identities from afar. Its an exemplary story of sacrifice and service by a people who are too often erased from the American narrative. At its heart, FAITH HEALERS is about Filipino kapwa - our shared humanity - and the importance of honoring history, celebrating culture, and telling our own story.
