It is the leading cause of death for women of reproductive age, and could be almost entirely preventable with access to basic surgical care. Culturally, hospitals are seen as the place where one goes to die. The Dangla Hospital and a community of health care workers unite to shift the perception of medical care and provide emergency surgeries to those in critical need. Carrying Tomorrow shares the stories of two women, Firnus and Gojam, who defy the odds of life-threatening pregnancies through an incredible culmination of medical professionals, governments, and communities rising together to challenge the unacceptable, and in doing so igniting the consciousness of the coming generation.
