What, if any, downstream interventions are currently being employed to remedy such community health issues as may be reflected in the film?

reflect on your thoughts on community and public health issues represented in the film.

Having watched the film, being as specific as you can in your responses, consider the following questions/issues:

Based on our studies, which, if any community and public health issue(s) are explored in the film, and what makes them community health issues?
Which, if any, community or public health issue(s) in the film do you see as most important or pressing, and why? (You may use statistics from the film and other sources to buttress your case.)
Which, if any, health disparities are explored in the film?
What, if any, upstream interventions are currently being employed to remedy such community health issues as may be reflected in the film?
What, if any, downstream interventions are currently being employed to remedy such community health issues as may be reflected in the film?
How might you address the community health issues reflected in the film differently from the methods currently available?
In answering the questions, do not make a list of answers. Your paper should be written as a clear, thoughtful essay, with an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. Using quotes from the film may help bring your discussion to life. You should write at least one or two paragraphs to explore each of the 6 questions.

Although you may state your opinions about the film and use your own emotional responses to enrich your discussion, this essay is not a film review. It is an opportunity to explore such community and public health issues as might be reflected in the film. Please do not focus on arguing about the quality of the film – be sure to move beyond stating your likes and dislikes.
