Nigeria has the 4th highest maternal death rate in the world. Hospitals in Lagos rely on medical supplies from blood banks, but deliveries often arrive too late.
LifeBank is a team that uses Google Maps to connect dispatch riders with blood banks and hospitals in need. The crew of this short documentary spent a month embedded in a Lagos hospital, following six pregnant women and four LifeBank delivery riders on a mission to save as many lives as possible.
