-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preview Screening of FIRE IN THE BLOOD
5pm Friday 20th September
Moviemento Cinema, Kottbusser Damm 22, Berlin
As part of the upcoming Global Health Summer School in Berlin this September, Health Action International will host a preview screening of the award-winning documentary film FIRE IN THE BLOOD (Director Dylan Gray).
FIRE IN THE BLOOD is an intricate tale of 'medicine, monopoly and malice', it tells the story of how Western pharmaceutical companies and governments aggressively blocked access to low-cost AIDS drugs for the countries of Africa and the global south in the years after 1996 - causing ten million or more unnecessary deaths - and the improbable group of people who decided to fight back.
