Joined together by tragedy, two strong-willed women join forces to lobby for more aid regarding malaria.
They bond after both their sons succumb to the disease while in the African continent.
The two couldn't have been more different. Hilary Swank plays a well-to-do mother who takes a 6 month sabbatical to take her son to Africa. The very plain Blenda Blethyn loses her son when he goes to the African continent for a teaching position in Mozambique.
Swank's marriage seems to becoming apart before her husband, the latter also well played, realizes the value of what is wife is trying to accomplish. That didn't appear to be the case for Blethyn's mate.
James Woods briefly appears as Swank's father, a Conservative man who goes the distance to aid his daughter in her quest.
A wonderfully done film, sad but quite inspirational.
