      Audience Member From a movie-wise point of view, it was meh. A little repetitive and lacking rhythm. Feels more like a 15 min emotive special on your standard big-city hospital. It surely shows how difficult the worst of the pandemic was for healthcare workers. I just wish they had shown how residents experienced it. They were the first on the line and were not even mentioned in the movie. Similarly there was no mention of pharmacists, who also worked very hard. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I was lucky enough to work alongside some of the crew who produced this. Everytime I watch this film I am reminded of what incredible lengths our front line workers went to during COVID-19. I think this will be an important documentary in 20 years time.
