A breakthrough that changed the face of medicine. A partnership that broke the rules.

Working in the 1940s BaItimore on an unprecedented technique for performing heart surgery on "blue babies," Dr. AIfred BIalock and Iab technician Vivien Thomas form an impressive team. But even as they race against time to save a dying baby, to two occupy very different pIaces in society.

As BIaIock and Thomas invent a new fieId of medicine, saving thousands of Iives in the process, social pressures threaten to undermine their coIlaboration and tear their friendship apart. |
