A paramedic who's severely affected by exhaustion hardly makes it through three full days of his job.
'Bringing Out The Dead' is an atypical, quite experimental film, directed by a Martin Scorsese who manages to control an extremely mixed, turbulent and dramatic project, very close to real life, with people suffering from almost familiar, almost common problems. Nicholas Cage is - as usual - wonderful in the role of the paramedic who barely manages to keep his mental balance in check, under the burden of exhaustion and post-traumatic stress caused by the death of a patient.
