Pills Profits Protest: A Chronicle of the Global AIDS Movement

We play an excerpt from the documentary "Pills Profits Protest: Chronicle of the Global AIDS Movement." The film examines the national and international grass roots response to the AIDS crisis. It takes an in-depth look at the battle for access to HIV treatment among the poorest and most marginalized communities as they confront larger powers, including governments, corporate bodies and the multinational drug industry.

Pills, Profits, Protest was produced and directed by Anne-christine d"Adesky, Shanti Avirgan and Ann Rossetti. It premiered last December on World AIDS Day on the Showtime cable network.
