Braver Angels Film Club: "Shot in the Arm"

Film Club Topic:
The Braver Angels film club chooses films that address social, political or cultural issues that are relevant to society today. They may highlight liberal-leaning, conservative-leaning or independent themes, or feature actors or directors from opposite sides of the political spectrum.

Both skeptical and hopeful, “Shot in the Arm,” (2023, 92 minutes) explores vaccine hesitancy historically and in the context of our modern pandemic. Can we bridge the political divides that make us sick? The film features pro-vaxxers Dr. Anthony Faucci and Dr. Peter Hotez, and anti-vaxxers Robert Kennedy, Jr., and Andrew Wakefield. Director Scott Hamilton Kennedy will join us!
