Films In the Media Center
Dr. Farmer’s Remedy—CGC Media Center R 154 .F36 D7 2008
Twenty years ago, Dr. Paul Farmer found his life's work in Haiti, in one of the poorest parts of one of
the poorest countries in the world. Since then, Dr. Farmer has dedicated his life to delivering medical
care to the impoverished through his organization, Partners in Health. Now working in nine countries,
Partners in Health is saving lives in places where no one thought there was any reason for hope.
Tuberculosis in America: The People’s Plague (Parts 1 & 2)—CGC Media Center RC 311 .T8375 2008
Chronicles a history that has shaped much of our modern public health policy. Examines a disease
that is highly curable and almost entirely preventable and yet today has returned to catch our country's
health care system off guard.
Films in the Library
The Agronomist—F 1928.2 .A476 2005
Tells the story of Haitian national hero, journalist, and freedom fighter Jean Dominique, whom Demme
first met and filmed in 1986. As owner and operator of his nation's oldest and only free radio station,
Dominique was frequently at odds with his country's various repressive governments and spent much of
the 80's and early 90's in exile in New York, where Demme continued to interview him over the years.
Dominique fought tirelessly against his country's overwhelming injustice, oppression, and poverty, but
it was his shocking and still-unsolved assassination in April of 2000 that gave the director the impetus
to assemble more than a decade's worth of material into a celebration of this dynamic man's life and
legacy.
And the Band Played on—RA 644 .A25 A52 2001
Follows the struggle of a handful of strong-willed men and women who took on the fight to save lives
in the face of a mysterious illness now called AIDS.
Aristide and the Endless Revolution—F 1928.23 .A75 A75 2005
Jean-Bertrand Aristide, the former president of Haiti, was twice removed from office with the complicity of the international community. An investigation into the events that led to his most recent ouster,
'Aristide and the endless revolution' exposes the geopolitical intrigue, the economic alliances between
the Haitian and U.S. elite, the armed criminals posing as freedom fighters and other factors that have
consistently threatened this young democracy.
Miss Evers’ Boys—PN 1997 .M553 2001
In 1932, Nurse Eunice Evers is invited to work with doctors on the "Tuskegee Experiment" to study the
effects of syphilis. She is faced with a terrible dilemma when she learns the patients are denied treatment that could cure them.
