Critical Care

Dr. Werner Ernst (James Spader) is an over-worked intern who only wants what is best for his elderly, comatose patient - until he falls for the ailing man's beautiful daughter Felicia (Kyra Sedgwick). The seductive Felicia has ten million reasons to let her father "die with dignity", while her deeply religious sister has her own motives for keeping him alive. Caught between passion and duty, Werner descends into a moral mine field where the physician's god-like powers of life and death depend not on knowing right from wrong ... but having the courage to choose.
