“Fire in the Blood: A Tale of Medicine, Monopoly & Malice” (2013)

“People are dying and the medicines are in my briefcase!”

“Fire in the Blood” is a critical piece that details the consequences of corporate greed and the process by which Western corporations, pharmaceutical companies and governments have historically restricted access and blocked the distribution of low-cost anti-retroviral AIDS drugs to countries in the Global South, causing the needless and preventable deaths of millions throughout Latin America, Africa and Asia. Featuring commentary from global public figures such as Bill Clinton and Desmond Tutu, this film explores what some call “the crime of the century.”

Director: Dylan Mohan Gray
