90 Seconds. Heart-Stopping Drama. Heart-Warming Rescues. Heart-Lifting Inspiration… 

The amazing work of Israel’s United Hatzalah began when five-year-old Eli Beer saw a tragic accident and dreamed of being the one to save the victim. While still a young teen, Eli set out to make that dream come true, creating an underground network of pioneering EMTs who were determined to bring their life-saving skills to victims in only 90 seconds, no matter where they were.

90 Seconds is the story of how a boy who failed in school created the world’s largest all-volunteer emergency service. It’s the story of dramatic rescues, sometimes under fire. Of life-changing and life-saving innovations such as the “ambucycle.” It is the story of how with determination, vision, self-sacrifice and compassion – and, of course, siyata diShmaya (Heavenly assistance) – lives can be saved and dreams can come true.
