Когда-то Фрэнк Гэлвин был хорошим адвокатом. Но дружба с бутылкой до добра не доводит. И теперь он — консультант по юридическим вопросам в похоронной конторе. Бывший коллега Микки Моррисей, не забывший о способностях Фрэнка, подкидывает ему интересное дело. Это шанс попробовать снова встать на ноги и попытаться занять достойное место в жизни. Молодая женщина, получившая во время родов анестезию, превращается в прикованную к постели тяжелобольную. Ее родственники хотят подать в суд на респектабельную бостонскую больницу и на церковь, которой она принадлежит, чтобы получить компенсацию за причиненный физический и моральный ущерб. Фрэнк уверен, что сторона-ответчик виновна, но ни за что не признает медицинскую ошибку…

Эта напряженная и неоднозначная драма навсегда изменит ваше отношение к современной медицине. Жизнь доктора Бока рушится: его бросила жена, дети с ним не разговаривают, и даже в любимой им больнице, где он работает, что-то не так... Балансируя на грани нервного срыва, Бок увлекается очаровательной дочерью одного из пациентов, которая не только вернет его к жизни, но и изменит его жизнь.

После того, как бригада хирургов неудачно прооперировала его жену, оставив ее умирать, доктор Файбс решил: «Девятеро убили ее, девятеро должны умереть!» Одно за другим Файбс придумывает искусные убийства, основанные на ветхозаветных десяти казнях египетских. Это и нашествие саранчи и атака яростных крыс и летучие мыши — вампиры.

Adding insult to injury

April 27, 2017

A documentary that examines the issue of forced live organ harvesting from Chinese prisoners of conscience, and the response - or lack of it - around the world. It's happened before: governments killing their own citizens for their political or spiritual beliefs. But it’s never happened like this. It’s happened so often that the world doesn’t always pay attention.

‘Voices from the Shadows’ shows the brave and sometimes heartrending stories of five ME patients and their carers, along with input from Dr Nigel Speight, Prof Leonard Jason and Prof Malcolm Hooper. These were filmed and edited between 2009 and 2011, by the brother and mother of an ME patient in the UK. It shows the devastating consequences that occur when patients are disbelieved and the illness is misunderstood. Severe and lasting relapse occurs when patients are given inappropriate psychological or behavioural management: management that ignores the severe amplification of symptoms that can be caused by increased physical or mental activity or exposure to stimuli, and by further infections. A belief in behavioural and psychological causes, particularly when ME becomes very severe and chronic, following mismanagement, is still taught to medical students and healthcare professionals in the UK. As a consequence, situations similar to those shown in the film continue to occur.
