National Film Club Discussion of “Shot in the Arm”
September 19 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm EDT
Watch a movie on your own, then attend a discussion of it made richer by the wide variety of viewpoints that participants hold.
We choose 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.
Watch it first, then join us for our discussion of this film. To see this movie, first register for the discussion, and then you will receive a free link to view it.
Be sure to watch the film before we meet on Zoom to discuss it!
