"The Surge at Mount Sinai" Promo

Streaming exclusively on discovery+, "The Surge at Mount Sinai" is a feature-length documentary chronicling the harrowing experiences of medical workers at Mount Sinai Health System, who fought in the trenches as the novel coronavirus overwhelmed New York City.

The documentary tracks three healthcare workers, two intimate patient journeys and experts from across the hospital in one of the world's largest healthcare systems in the country during an unprecedented global pandemic. With intimate access to those on the front lines, the film chronicles the race against time as New York City became the global epicenter of the Covid-19 outbreak and New York was experiencing more than 350 deaths per day. At times harrowing and at other times heroic, THE SURGE AT MOUNT SINAI is a reminder of what we've come through, that we must never forget, and that everyone has the capacity to be a hero.

Narrated by Jon Bon Jovi, with a track from Billie Eilish, the film is produced by purpose-driven creative studio, CONVICTS in association with Mount Sinai Health System. The film is directed by Jonny Kapps. Edited by Kane Platt
