A calm, slow telling of a true story to help you drift off. A young doctor from the Ontario farm country spends a long summer and a snowy winter in a small laboratory in Toronto. Early in 1922, a boy in a hospital bed is given a new medicine called insulin, and he begins to get better.

Soft rain plays throughout. No sudden sounds.
