Tells the story of how Western pharmaceutical companies and governments blocked access to low-cost AIDS drugs for the countries of the global south in the years after 1996.
Angry, impassionate filmmaking that demands - and deserves - serious answers.
Insightful and quietly angry.
The naked greed of "Big Pharma" still hangs over the film like a poison cloud.
A slightly dry, yet solid reportage on a humanitarian disgrace.
It is the emphasis on cold, hard facts that makes Fire In The Blood so warmly compelling.
The film is a testament to human decency and a damning indictment of laissez-faire capitalism.
