Academy Award-nominated director Roger Weisberg tackles one of the most hotly debated issues in contemporary politics by exploring just what happens when the uninsured get sick. The prospect of dealing with the health care system can be a horrifying one for those suffering through illness without the benefit of insurance, and by exploring a number of cases in which the desperate and afflicted attempted to get help from an uncaring and unsympathetic system, Weisberg presents a heartfelt case for change.
