Explore the dark history of medicine and the ultimate tragedy of Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis.
In 19th-century Vienna, pregnant women faced inexplicable loss rates in doctor's wards.
Semmelweis discovered that doctors were transmitting diseases directly from post-mortem rooms to deliveries. Despite proving that handwashing dropped mortality rates immediately, he was mocked and rejected by the scientific community of his time, ultimately meeting a tragic end in an institution.
A cinematic true story about science, arrogance, and a misunderstood genius.
