Feature-length documentary Fire in the Blood recounts the fight against American pharmaceutical companies to increase the availability of HIV/AIDS medication in developing countries.

Life-saving medicines to treat HIV/AIDS arrived significantly later in developing countries than in the West.

In Fire in the Blood, award-winning documentary filmmaker Dylan Mohan Gray recounts the journey to increased availability of these drugs for poorer countries in Africa and Asia.

At the heart of this arduous process was a fight against the pharmaceutical behemoths who had a monopoly on HIV/AIDS medicines.

The extortionate prices set by these corporations made life-saving medication completely unaffordable to developing countries.

By examining the U.S. patent system, Mohan Gray showcases how pharmaceutical companies were able to generate enormous profits while low-income individuals in developing countries were dying.

Mohan Gray provides a compelling analysis of how global health advocates ended these patent protections and turned the tide on AIDS treatment in developing countries.
