Synopsis

Spoiler shield

An idealistic intern is doing his best to survive a very tough day on the job. When not scurrying from one patient to another, he tries to maintain equilibrium in his romance with a nurse. Comedy dovetails neatly into tragedy, which in turn segues smoothly into heart-tugging pathos.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
