Fire in the Blood

Fire in the Blood 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, resulting in an estimated ten million or more unnecessary deaths. The film features contributions from global figures such as Bill Clinton, Desmond Tutu, and Joseph Stiglitz, and chronicles the improbable group of people who decided to fight back against this "crime of the century".
