Opening Night Film: Dr. TONY FAUCI – Q&A w/Director Mark Mannucci

Directed by Mark Mannucci
This intimate film chronicles Fauci at home, in his office and in the corridors of power as he battles the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the political onslaught that upends his life and calls into question his 50-year career as the United States of America’s leading advocate for public health. From heated discussions about the vaccine with Black residents in downtown Washington, DC, to his explanation for how the NIH-funded lab in Wuhan, China, could not have created a virus that made COVID-19, Dr. Fauci is candid, truthful and passionate. Nothing Fauci had previously faced, including the impassioned activists who challenged him during the HIV/AIDS epidemic, prepared him for the vitriol, political backlash, and the threats against his safety and that of his family. DR. TONY FAUCI will examine the life of the man behind the podium – a scientist, husband, father and public servant who who discusses how he might have done things differently.
Running Time: 113 minutes

Guest Speaker: Mark Mannucci, Director
Q&A moderated by Tom Needham, Host of The Sounds of Film at WUSB radio.
