Resistance Fighters – The Global Antibiotics Crisis

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». The 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 a global solution. They all are Resistance Fighters.
