Dangerous Remedy

SYNOPSIS

In 1969, Dr. Bertram Wainer is called out to tend to a young woman dying as a result of a backyard abortion. When an angry Wainer investigates the illegal-abortion racket, it leads him into the dark and murky world of criminals, paranoid doctors who operate illegally, and desperate women. Passionate, courageous, and flawed, Wainer launched a campaign that both challenged and changed our society.
