Man Running

Running time: 91 mins

How far will a man go to outrun his own grief? A doctor becomes emotionally attached to a young patient. Who decides the medical course of treatment? The patient, the family or the medical staff? The compassion is palpable as the doctor, Jim, (Gord Rand, Orphan Black), faces his own humanity in a grueling competition. If the doctor cannot save his patient, can he at least save himself? Through spellbinding story-telling, the beauty of nature is juxtaposed against the stark environment of the hospital. Milli Wilkinson (The Twilight Saga) is superb portraying the young patient fighting to control her own fate. - Angela Ettinger
