In his vivid & thought-provoking filmmaking debut, physician Ryan McGarry gives us unprecedented access to America's busiest Emergency Dept. Amidst real life-and-death situations, McGarry follows a dedicated team of charismatic, young doctors-in-training as they wrestle openly with both their ideals and with the realities of saving lives in a complex and overburdened system. Their training ground and source of inspiration is "C-Booth," Los Angeles County Hospital's legendary trauma bay, the birthplace of Emergency Medicine. CODE BLACK offers a tense, doctor's-eye view, right into the heart of the healthcare debate.
