CRITICAL CONDITION

This heartbreaking film takes viewers inside Americas broken health care system. Critical Condition does not show only facts and statistics but rather gives disturbing and dramatic stories of real people who are entrapped in this crisis of high medical costs. It illustrates, in a highly personal way, that health care is out of reach for many Americans with severe illnesses and the result is people are losing their jobs, homes, health, and possibly their lives.(1 hour 22 min. Directed by Roger Weisberg.) Shown with short Uncovered, a powerful documentary which brings viewers inside the lives of the Nazaretyan family. George and Narine are two loving parents struggling with health care for their twin girls who were born three months premature and require specialized medical attention. Sadly, the crisis of Americas health care system leaves this family without insurance for their disabled children, and a pile of medical bills that threaten their survival (18 mins).
