Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 Hello Coalition! If you are in West Hollywood or know anyone there please forward this email. I will be trying to get this documentary aired on other public access stations across the country.

HepCAware.org Presents "Silence is Deadly - Living with Hepatitis C" Friday February 17 5:30pm and 10pm Channel 36 West Hollywoods Public Access Station on Adelphia Cable Silence is Deadly - Living with Hepatitis C is a documentary chronicling the lives of four people and their struggle with Hepatitis, a potentially fatal liver disease. While exploring the nature of the virus, its treatments, prognosis, and global impact, this powerful documentary further explores what it is to live with a debilitating chronic illness and its stigma, as seen through the eyes of our characters, one being the filmmaker herself. The film was written, directed and produced by Kindra Anne Ruocco and In Your Face Productions, with the purpose of ending the silence that has become an epidemic for the estimated more than 5 million Americans who will contract Hepatitis C in the next few years. Currently about one in 15 people are living with this disease. "Silence is Deadly" delves into the options and realities of Western and Eastern medicine, and intertwines intimate details from a few who have made definitive lifestyle choices in coping with their illness. Within the words and images, there exists a powerful force for change and awareness with an underlying belief that education equals prevention. Zirbes from HepCAware.org is helping to promote the film and use it as a tool for raising awareness of hepatitis C. If you have any questions please feel free to call at 818-769-2701 or send her an email at Hepatitis CAware@....
