Blood Business (2017)
Director: Pierre Monnard
Writers: Marie Maurisse, François Pilet
Stars: David Rihs, Carlos, Rudolf Schwabe
Genre: Documentary
Country: Switzerland, Germany
Language: English
Release Date: February 21, 2017 Germany (ARTE)
Filming Location: Cleveland, Ohio, USA
Synopsis:
Plasma, a component of blood that is highly sought-after, now costs more liter per liter than petrol. Used by pharmaceutical companies to create expensive medications, this precious liquid has become a lucrative commodity.
The film investigates one of the largest corporations in this flourishing market, with profits soaring over a billion euros. Their donation centres are mostly found in poor neighbourhoods in the U.S., and they pay donors for their blood, a practice forbidden in Europe.
For impoverished Americans, blood donations have become a source of income- presenting a real risk to their health, as they lie about their health conditions and donate repeatedly to make ends meet.
Other donors give their blood in the hope of helping others- but the reality of where their donations actually go can be somewhat different. We investigate the global trade in blood and plasma donations.
Reviews:
"Excellent investigative journalism into a lesser known sector.
New cannibalism is not an unfair description of circumstances."
