Flash Film: Remote Area Medical


Flash Film: Remote Area Medical
Co-sponsored by Nursing Students Without Borders
Thursday, October 23rd @ 7:30p.m. 

Location will be sent to attendees


During the U.S. debate about healthcare reform, the media—reporters and news crews and filmmakers—failed to put a human face on what it means to not have access to healthcare. Remote Area Medical fills that gap—it is a film about people, not policy. Focusing on a single three-day clinic held in the Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee, Remote Area Medical affords us an insider’s perspective on the ebb and flow of the event. It it is the extraordinary stories of the patients, desperate for medical attention, that create a lasting impression about the state of modern health care in America.
