After a traumatic incident during residency, young medical student James Hayman (Namir Smallwood) moves to a rural hospital to start over. dr. Harrison (veteran stage and film actor Michael Potts) suggests he take a class on bedside manner and facilitating deeper relationships with patients. The demons of his past begin to catch up with James when he is consumed by the case of a young asthma patient (Sidney Flanigan, NEVER Rarely SOMETIMES) with mysterious symptoms. His grip on reality begins to slip as his disturbing nightmares, anxiety-fueled speculations, and physical injuries collide with the harsh realities of the medical world. In the follow-up to SAINT FRANCE – and predecessor to GHOSTLIGHT – director Alex Thompson assembles a strong cast of veteran actors in this humanistic and unconventional take on the genre.
