I might be dead by tomorrow

In Mon­tre­al, front-line work­ers are work­ing hard to pro­vide appro­pri­ate care for our soci­ety’s most vul­ner­a­ble citizens. 

SYNOPSIS

Patients arrive in the consultation room every day, broken, sick and scarred by life. In front of them sits a committed person who tries, without false hope, to repair bodies and psyches.
At night, when the clinic doors are closed, the street outreach workers take to the streets to extend their support to all those unfortunate women who have chosen the streets as their home.

Theme(s) : , Human Rights, Mental health, Precarity
