Video: Survivor
Penguin September 10th, 2008
A beautiful and powerful short documentary. And it’s amazing that they never mention the “C” word once. But as people share their personal stories, you realize that they’re all sharing the same meta-narrative. Errol Morris does a fantastic job of intercutting the dialogue so we get a sense of this one big story.
I also has a personal connection to this because my dad had liver cancer. I know how hard it is to go through chemo, percocet, going through surgery, looking for a donor, and finally getting the call.
Stand Up To Cancer is a groundbreaking movement backed by an innovative approach to cancer research aimed at ending cancer’s reign as a leading cause of death. We have the best and brightest minds on board, and are on the verge of unlocking the door in prevention, detection, treatment and even reversal of this national epidemic.
