 A young man is admitted into hospital after a relatively minor road traffic accident and should have recovered from his injuries in two days. However, due to the complete medical mis-management of the case by the hospital, his condition deteriorates rapidly and two weeks later he is dead. His father wants to know why he died and struggles completely in vain to discover the truth. The public inquest into the death is a white wash and the father is left angry and frustrated still with many unanswered questions. Eventually he is forced to educate himself in medical matters in order to take on the medical establishment and pursue the matter through the courts.
