Having specifically dealt with the issue of access to antiretroviral (ARV) medication in my work, I found this to be an excellent portrayal of the social/economic/political and environmental aspects of access. The commentary was fair and nuanced and, I felt, well-balanced - bringing together the contribution (or lack thereof) of different stakeholders internationally, to tell one coherent story about the struggle to make life-saving treatment available. It is to the Director's credit that this was told in such a measured tone, without the hysteria and rhetoric that can accompany such stories. I look forward to the DVD release so that I can show it to students - it is a story that needs to be heard.
