A woman with no place left to turn and a young man with no place left to go discover that life is just beginning—and so are the choices that make it all worth living.
Denise Garner (Annabeth Gish, The X-Files) is a divorced single mom whose struggle to raise her ten-year-old son becomes a greater challenge when she loses her job as a dedicated ER nurse. Ironically, it was that constant dedication that also cost Denise her marriage to Mitch (Bruce Thomas, Legally Blonde). Spurred on by a tenuous financial situation, she has no choice but to grab the only position offered to her. It’s a temporary gig working at Liberty Street, a residential facility specializing in brain-trauma patients—such as Rick Spencer (Ethan Embry, Dragnet), a handsome former prep-school football star now incapacitated by an automobile accident. Little does Denise realize that hope can come from the most unlikely places—and people.
Denise’s compassion stirs in Rick a need to mend, to regain memories believed long gone since the accident, and to emerge from his shell and fight for recovery. Her therapeutic miracles aren’t lost on Jake Mitchell (Brett Cullen, From the Earth to the Moon), a handsome physician who’s immediately drawn to her many charms. Denise herself is enjoying a newfound optimism as well; however, she finds herself compromised by Rick’s father (Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Ed Begley, Jr., St. Elsewhere), an unreasonably stubborn and possessive man whose own terrible secrets are locked away in his son’s mind. As personal and professional lives collide, as family bonds are broken and healed, Denise discovers that Liberty Street provides more heart and soul than she ever dreamed possible.
The tenacity of the human spirit is celebrated in Life on Liberty Street, a heartwarming movie about the small miracles in life and the ordinary people who become heroes.

Kingdom Hospital: The Entire Series |

Kingdom Hospital is a hospital with a bizarre population that includes a nearly blind security guard, a nurse who regularly faints at the sight of blood and a paraplegic artist whose recovery is a step beyond miraculous.
