Storyline

In a story inspired by real events, Annisa, a young South Sudanese midwife, finds herself in a race against time to save the life of a young mother (Agnes) who has suffered postpartum haemorrhage. With conventional methods not seeming to work and no resources, Annisa must use her own resources and training to save Agnes from the same fate that befell her own mother ten years earlier.
