Tell Me And I Will Forget

This is a documentary by Justin Salerian, who directed this prior to being admitted to St. George's School of Medicine. It's a commentary on the social and political ramifications of post-Apartheid South Africa from the perspective of its EMS workers.

I haven't watched it yet, but it sure seems interesting.

OK, so I watched this last night and I thoroughly recommend it guys. This is really not to be missed. You can watch the whole thing for free at the link in the OP.

That was a very moving film. After a bad day, I think this film would make you think "maybe it wasn't so bad after all."

What's interesting to me are the parallels I see between SA and the US.

In terms of culture generally or Ambulance specifically?

Brown can do a good Saffar accent, not too dissimilar from a Kiwi

I wish there were similarities between our ambulance services - those guys straight up handle things.

I was thinking more in terms of the socioeconomic characteristics. I see the US as heading toward a state of affairs similar to what exists there.

All I have to say is wow.... I've spent time in Haiti and because of that I feel I have a better understanding of the level of poverty seen in this video, but still, wow..... seeing it from an EMS standpoint somehow makes it completely different.
