Hummingbird House

A middle-aged midwife from Indiana travels to Central America, doing what she can for the impoverished and war-traumatized people she encounters. Along the way, she becomes involved with a lover who leaves her and a priest who, in the end, stays true to his vocation. The culmination of her work is the establishment of a school and clinic for poor children in Guatemala--an achievement that, ultimately, she feels was worth the sacrifice of her personal life.
