Following a traumatic incident during his residency, young medical student James Heyman (Namir Smallwood) is transferred to a rural hospital to start over. Noticing James having difficulty and struggled communicating with patients, Dr. Harrison (veteran stage and screen actor Michael Potts) suggests he enroll in a course on good manners and how to build deeper relationships with patients. The demons of James’ past begin to catch up with him when he becomes sucked into the case of a young asthma patient (Sidney Flanigan, NEVER RARELY SOMETIMES ALWAYS) with mysterious symptoms. His grip on reality begins to weaken as his haunting nightmares, anxiety-fueled assumptions, and physical injuries collide with the harsh realities of the medical world. Director Alex Thompson assembles a strong cast of seasoned actors in his sequel to SAINT FRANCES—and predecessor to GHOSTLIGHT—in this unconventional, humanistic take on the genre.
