Resistance Fighters

The UN General Assembly regards antibiotic resistance as a global and most urgent threat. The WHO alarms that we could fall back into a post-antibiotic age. This film tells us how we got there: It is a story about how negligence, greed, and short-sightedness have rendered the lifesaving effects of antibiotics powerless. It is a science-thriller about disillusioned, fighting doctors, rebellious scientists, patients wrestling with life-threatening diseases, and diplomats searching for solutions.
