SECOND VICTIMS
synopsis
Set against the backdrop of an understaffed stroke unit, the skilled neurologist Alexandra's unwavering confidence is put to the ultimate test when a routine case spirals into tragedy. Blame and guilt ripple through the hospital, and Alexandra confronts her own fallibility, grappling with the profound repercussions of medical misjudgements. In a raw and introspective journey, we learn the weight of guilt and the power of compassion.
