With a population of close to nine million, Mexico City has only 45 state-funded ambulances to serve in emergencies. Meet the Ochoa family, who run a for-profit rescue unit to meet the public's needs when the state falls short. Spending their nights scanning radios, The Ochoas race to be the first responders to critically injured patients in the city's wealthiest neighbourhoods—but a sudden escalation in competition and police bribes must force them to reckon with the ethics of their practice. Midnight Family takes you on a thrillingly immersive ride through the streets of Mexico and the shocking realities of a broken health care system.
