At a public hospital in Nicaragua, OB-GYN Dr. Carla Cerrato contends with the harrowing implications of a new law that bans all abortion, even in cases of rape or incest or to save a woman’s life. Doctors must navigate between the potential of prosecution and medical protocols that save lives. The drama illuminates the reality of prohibition against the backdrop of a political, religious, and historically complex identity. As the fatalities escalate, Dr. Cerrato’s outrage transforms into a willingness to act boldly.
