In this long lost ACADEMY AWARD winning documentary covering the life and times of the legendary humanitarian and Nobel Peace Prize winner, the camera follows the good doctor around his hospital in French Equatorial Africa, where his efforts had helped the villagers build and improve their way of life.
This amazing documentary features narration by legendary actors Burgess Meredith and Fredric March with incredible on-location footage of Albert Schweitzer at his hospital in Africa.
Best Documentary 1957
A man is truly ethical only when he obeys the compulsion to help all life which he is able to assist, and shrinks from injuring anything that lives. -Albert Schweitzer
@Mr81Fred Thanks, that was very interesting.

@likeroby at around 1:40, schweitzer asks the two whether the food (apples?) is from their garden, the old woman confirms; then they talk about the good weather; schweitzer thanks them for the gift and tells them to wait until he brings back the baskets (I missed one or two words, because they apparently speak in a - today almost extinguished - dialect called "elsässisch" (or "Alsatian language"), close to swiss-german).
