Tonight’s screening of “Big Bucks, Big Pharma” is canceled due to storminess and a Film Real host who has fallen under the weather after finalizing and defending her Master’s thesis.  The newly minted Master of Arts will be back at the Cambridge Community Center next month with “War Made Easy” on September 29.  Until then, you can catch “Big Bucks, Big Pharma” on CCTV!  Check the listings here: http://www.cctvcambridge.org/

Big Bucks, Big Pharma: Marketing Disease and Pushing Drugs

7pm, Cambridge Community Center (directions)
Watch the trailer here.

Big Bucks, Big Pharma pulls back the curtain on the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical marketing industry to expose the insidious ways that illness is used, manipulated, and in some instances created, for capital gain. The film challenges us to ask important questions about the consequences of relying on a for-profit industry for our health and well-being.

7pm @ the Cambridge Community Center. Free!  Don’t miss it!
