Audience Member A compelling story about young people who changed the world of medicine with little more than their belief that health care is a human right. Through perseverance and hard work, they changed the minds of the medical establishment, showing that state-of-the-art healthcare can and should be provided to the poor worldwide. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member It's genuinely moving. Every time I watch I'm filled with determination. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member While Partners in Health has done amazing work for the medical communities in rural areas and significant work overall for Global Health, this documentary takes on a heavy handed and slanted view of events surrounding Paul Farmers and PiH's work. Casting broad strokes of hero vs villain in a manner that doesn't illustrate the complexity of situations. The movie takes an aggressive stance against people in the scientific community who are posing questions, which are very legitimate, about their work and results. This process means that results are not taken at face value, but need to be verified and repeated. This process is critical and important, but is instead these scientists are cast as villains. While I appreciate and admire Paul Farmer's and Partners in Health's work, this felt pandering and biased and tunnel-visioned.
