6000 A Day: An Account of a Catastrophe Foretold

6000 a Day

June 1, 2002
5:30 PM -- Theater 3
40 Seats

6000 a Day Reveals how the world's top decision makers knowingly failed to prevent the spread of the AIDS. It examines the failure of key individuals, prominent NGO's, and governments to act as they allowed a catastrophe to fester - a catastrophe that undoubtedly could have been avoided.

Since it appeared 20 years ago, AIDS has left behind it a trail of destruction. It has already killed 30 million people, and infected another 50 million. By the end of this current decade an estimated 100 million people will have perished from this disease.

Why did the world wait so long to react? This film answers the
question, and dissects the key moments in the global response to the epidemic. By examining this human catastrophe, the film reveals a global rift that helped thedisease to spread.
