The International Red Cross helps people in war zones and in times of crisis. This behind the scenes documentary looks at one such person, who makes a sacrifice every day to help others. 

Farhana Javid is a 38-year-old psychologist from Kashmir working in Ukraine.  With a team of Ukrainian Red Cross volunteers, she helps people living near the front line cope with their distress and suffering.

In places affected by conflict, one in five people live with some form of mental health condition. That's three times more than the general population worldwide.

The International Committee of the Red Cross provides psychosocial support, psychological and specialised mental health support to people living in war zones and violent places.
