Description
"Band-aid is a compelling portrait of life on the edges of the medical system. We follow Audrey Mandamin (sister of director Daniel Prouty) and Cindy Cameron, women who have overcome troubled pasts, as they respond to emergencies in the remote Ojibwa community of Whitedog, in northwestern Ontairo. Here, medical help lies hours away and the line between life and death is defended by the 12 dedicated volunteers of the community's First Response team."--WorldCat.org.
