Summary:

This sensitive and sometimes anguishing documentary ventures behind the closed doors of America's child-protection system chronicling the raw and powerful day-to-day operations of one child-protection office in San Diego County, California. The film follows frontline workers in an Emergency Response Unit, shows social workers helping to re-unite torn families, and sits in on emotionally charged final courtroom decisions.
