Maryland, M.D.* (D)

While visiting her mother in Manhattan, a young girl devises a plan to bring her divorced parents back together. Based on a  story she heard as a child, she believes that if she can get to Egypt to make a wish at the pyramids; her mother, an aspiring actress in New York, and her father, a well established physician in Maryland, will magically fall back in love. As her personal journey meets with the reality of the streets, her parents reunite to find her. As they search in vain, they fear the worse as they believe their daughter is a passenger on the ill-fated Egypt Air Flight 990! Anyone who has ever felt alone against the world, only to make it all the way back, will come to love, “Maryland, M.D.” Writer: Eric Nemoto. Consultant: Kristen Nemoto. Pages: 116.
