SISTER follows maternal health workers in Ethiopia, Cambodia and Haiti though beautiful and brutal circumstances. A surgical health officer, a rural midwife, and a traditional birth attendant work tirelessly to save the lives of women and babies. Their stories reveal strategies to improve maternal health and the crisis of maternal and newborn mortality, shedding light on how the lack of transport, communication and education create weak links along the way
