Bringing Out the Dead

Any call can be murder, any stop can be suicide, any night can be the last.

A dark, introspective portrait of a burned-out paramedic haunted by the lives he couldn't save, grappling with guilt, addiction, and the question of whether he can continue bearing witness to human suffering.

Once called "Father Frank" for his efforts to rescue lives, Frank Pierce sees the ghosts of those he failed to save around every turn. He has tried everything he can to get fired, calling in sick, delaying taking calls where he might have to face one more victim he couldn't help, yet cannot quit the job on his own.
