Set against the backdrop of Israel's genocide on Gaza in October 2023, an Egyptian doctor named Salma volunteers with a relief convoy and crosses paths with a Palestinian man desperately searching for his nephew under the rubble.

How the Pulse Score works
For series, Pulse starts from the IMDb rating shrunk by vote count, then applies FORMAT CALIBRATION. Series score systematically higher than films on IMDb, so using the raw number would unfairly push a show like Indigenous to the top of a film catalogue. Calibration maps the series distribution onto the film one; meaning 68 is COMPARABLE to a film with the same Pulse.
One more difference from films: Letterboxd does not track series, so series Pulse derives from a single source (IMDb) rather than two.
