Summary
  • Ruth Jefferson es enfermera en la sala de partos de un hospital de Connecticut, una profesional con más de veinte años de experiencia. Ruth empieza su turno con el reconocimiento rutinario de un recién nacido, pero unos minutos después le comunican que el niño tiene otra enfermera. Los padres son supremacistas blancos y no quieren que Ruth, que es de origen africano, toque a su pequeño. El hospital satisface sus deseos, pero al día siguiente el niño sufre una crisis cardíaca y Ruth es la única enfermera de servicio. ¿Obedecerá las órdenes de la dirección o intervendrá a pesa de todo?
  • "A woman and her husband admitted to a hospital to have a baby request that their nurse be reassigned - they are white supremacists and don't want Ruth, who is black, to touch their baby. The hospital complies, but the baby later goes into cardiac distress when Ruth is on duty. She hesitates before rushing in to perform CPR. When her indecision ends in tragedy, Ruth finds herself on trial, represented by a white public defender who warns against bringing race into a courtroom. As the two come to develop a truer understanding of each other's lives, they begin to doubt the beliefs they each hold most dear."--
