A working-class father learns that his young son needs a heart transplant, but insurance will not cover the procedure. With few options left, he takes drastic action inside a hospital, forcing patients, staff, and authorities to confront the human cost of an inflexible healthcare system.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like emotionally charged dramas about desperate families and flawed institutions, especially The Next Three Days; Not for you if you prefer subtle themes, realistic behavior, or restrained melodrama.
