"Four months, New York City, 2020."
When Covid-19 hit New York City in 2020, filmmaker Matthew Heineman gained unique access to one of New Yorkโs hardest-hit hospital systems. The resulting film focuses on the doctors, nurses, and patients on the frontlines during the โfirst waveโ from March to June 2020. Their distinct storylines each serve as a microcosm to understand how the city persevered through the worst pandemic in a century
Directed by Matthew Heineman
Produced by: David Fialkow, Jeff Skoll, Joedan Okun
