Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary and featured on over 15 top-ten lists, How To Survive A Plague is the story of the brave young men and women who successfuIly reversed the tide of an epidemic, demanded the attention of a fearful nation, and stopped AIDS from becoming a death sentence. This improbable group of activists bucked oppression and infiltrated government agencies and the pharmaceutical industry, helping to identify promising new medication and treatments and move them through triaIs and into drugstores in record time. ln the process, they saved their own lives and ended the darkest days of a veritabIe pIague, while virtuaIly emptying AlDS wards in American hospitaIs. Theirs is a classic tale of activism that has since inspired movements for change in everything from breast cancer research to Occupy WaIl Street. |
