"We have to be realistic about the situation." A situation no one wants to be in. Apple TV has unveiled the full-length official trailer for a streaming series titled Five Days at Memorial, a chilling hospital thriller telling a true story from New Orleans. What would you do if everything failed? Based on actual events from Hurricane Katrina, Five Days at Memorial tells the story of the many exhausted caregivers at a New Orleans hospital who were forced to make heart-wrenching decisions amidst the storm's aftermath. It's based on the book of the same name by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Sheri Fink. Doctors and nurses at the intensive care unit of a New Orleans' hospital struggle with treating many patients during Hurricane Katrina when the facility is without power for 5 days. The series cast features Vera Farmiga, Cherry Jones, Robert Pine, Cornelius Smith Jr., Julie Ann Emery, and Adepero Oduye. This looks like such a harrowing story to recreate for the screen, such a traumatic experience to have to go through at all. This will be a tough watch.

Here's the main official trailer for Apple TV+'s series Five Days at Memorial, direct from YouTube:
