Hiding this decision from his girlfriend and family in Toronto is only the start of a series of compromises Amrit finds himself making as he deals with hospital politics and health care injustices.

The darkness that rises from their souls threatens to envelope all that they hold precious.

And its ugly underside. It is about politics. And beyond.
