To Hurt and to Heal
1987 · Documentary · 105 min. · Canada
The film presents a portrait of neonatal medical care, centred on the stories of three children: a child who was born premature and survived for six weeks before his death; a "miracle baby" who was saved by emergency heart surgery; and a child who was left disabled by an emergency tracheotomy that left him permanently unable to ever breathe on his own without a mechanical respirator.
