Reminiscent of the Carry On film series, this black comedy with tragic overtones focuses on the appalling conditions in an under-funded national health hospital, which are contrasted comically with a Dr. Kildare-style soap opera airing on the ward television. (Wikipedia)

I actually liked the B-plot (hospital soap opera) more than the main story. There wasn't as much comedy here as I would have liked or expected given the subject matter. It was sad, though, when the guy with 5 kids died. Fav scene: pretty poignant when the black doctor and nurse were talking about how the whites rely on them to sustain the system.
