Produktbeschreibung
On a humid southern night in a busy inner-city hospital, an inexperienced white male intern and a strong black nurse with years of experience are faced with the daunting task of changing a little girl's life. Estelle's laceration is just the tip of the iceberg, leading to the discovery of the worst wounds she's ever endured. As they delve deeper, the intern, May, quickly learns that abuse of all kinds is a daily occurrence in the inner city, perpetrated by both ordinary people and community leaders. Poverty, addiction, racism, and lost hope have created a breeding ground for unimaginable suffering. Little did May know that this journey would lead him to confront history and look into the eyes of the killer of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. As he grapples with this revelation, May realizes that his own transformation is just as crucial as Estelle's recovery.
