CODE BLACK (2013)

In his thought-provoking filmmaking debut, physician Ryan McGarry gives US access to America's busiest Emergency Department. Amidst real life-and-death situations, McGarry follows a team of young doctors-in-training as they wrestle openly with both their ideals and with the realities of saving lives in a complex system. Their training ground and source of inspiration is "C-Booth," Los Angeles County Hospital's legendary trauma bay where "more people have died and more people have been saved than in any other square footage in the United States." CODE BLACK offers a tense, doctor's-eye view, right into the heart of the healthcare debate - bringing US face to face with America's only 24/7 safety net.
