CORA-DANIELLE

CORA-DANIELLE
By DC Lessoway

GENRE: Historical, Drama
LOGLINE:

An account of two women wrestling with life, love and self while enduring two contrasting eras: the chaotic challenges of the present day and the regressive age for women in the early 1900s.

SYNOPSIS:

"Cora-Danielle" is written along the line of Grey's Anatomy and a much darker Dr. Quin, Medicine Woman. The story flies between two women starting their private medical practice in their own home. Danielle moves into the old family home to her estranged stepmother's chagrin while battling a drinking addiction. We start with her and a close friend trying but failing to save Danielle's suicidal boyfriend's life. Cora, who looks like Danielle, lived 120 years ago, in the same house, but with her blustery, narrow-minded minister father. She struggles to start her practice dealing with an addiction to a crude sedative of the time; as well as, her father, most people around her, and the medical establishment repeatedly reject her medical license application. We start with her saving the life of a mute, Malaysian orphan girl from literally under the wheels of a wagon.
