It’s a question that haunts Anthony Rossi. Each day, he works removing organs and tissues from the newly dead for transplantation. The problem? Almost nothing he does in his job is medically advisable or strictly legal, which is fine with his money-grubbing boss, who doesn’t care if he’s harming others by robbing the bodies of non-donors or passing on unusable tissue. Anthony’s fed up, and dreams of a way out and a new life with the girl of his dreams.

On June 16, 1918, America’s leading voice of conscience, Eugene Victor Debs, stepped onto a stage in Canton, Ohio, and gave a soul-stirring speech against American intervention in WWI. He did so knowing the cost would be severe: Debs was charged with violating the Espionage Act of 1917 and sentenced to 10 years in a federal penitentiary for sedition. It has never been easy for any man to risk everything - from his possessions, his family, his freedom, or his health - to do what he knows is right. Debs’ crisis is dramatized in Debs in Canton.
