A banda Fanny quase estourou, mas teve gente que achou melhor que isso não acontecesse. Formada pelas irmãs filipinas Jean e June Millington, que se mudaram para a Califórnia com os pais, a formação compunha, tocava e produzia suas próprias canções, lançadas por uma gravadora independente no início dos anos 1970. Seu rock sofisticado e suave chamou a atenção de David Bowie, que quis apadrinhá-las. Mas o showbiz está cheio de maus entendidos e preconceitos.

A Calling to Care is the inspiring story of 55 year-old Grace Stanley, a Canadian nurse who left her home and prestigious career behind to answer a calling halfway around the world in Karachi, Pakistan. Teaching nursing to local women in a strict Muslim culture that forbids them to even to touch men is a formidable task. However, Grace challenges her own values and belief systems to find common ground with her students, helping them to excel and feel respect for themselves in a culture that doesn't respect them. Whether it is getting her hands painted with henna, swimming fully-clothed in the ocean, or marching bravely with them on International Women's Day, Grace bonds with her students in a very special way, and ultimately discovers how the West can learn a lot more from the Third World than she ever thought.
