AMERICAN VETERANS: DISCARDED AND FORGOTTEN
Award-winning filmmaker Gary Null, PhD, exposes the American government's legacy of abuse and neglect of its soldiers and veterans. Dr. Null explores the truth about Gulf War Syndrome a horrific condition affecting thousands of soldiers and their families and the disturbing secrets that the government is hiding from the public. You'll learn how the deadly and toxic effects of armor-piercing radioactive depleted uranium, the use of experimental vaccines on over 1.1 million soldiers and chemical and germ warfare contributed to this debilitating, deadly condition. You'll see how our brave soldiers were sent into war with ineffective protective equipment and were lied to at every step. You'll hear the truth from doctors, scientists, military analysts and the veterans who are still suffering from the effects of their tours of duty while the government denies any accountability for this illness with thousands of veterans still not receiving the medical care or support that they desperately need. Dr. Null also reveals the epidemic of homelessness affecting our American veterans today. Shockingly, thousands of veterans are mired in poverty, suffering with physical and psychological illnesses and are living on the streets and in the woods throughout America. See the tragic story of these forgotten men and women and the few dedicated people who are committed to helping them in their plight. (135 min)

DEATH BY MEDICINE
Death By Medicine takes a hard examination at the dominant medical paradigm contributing to America's health crisis. Based on Gary Null's ground breaking book on the hundreds of thousands of injuries and deaths caused by conventional medicine, the documentary looks at the medical industrial complex, the pharmaceutical industry's usurpation of the nation's medical schools, research, falsified drug clinical trials, peer reviewed scientific journals, and the complicity of federal health agencies to permit this to happen. The result is a medical system unfounded on sound science. Why is there a lack of oversight by government regulatory agencies and private interest lobbyists call the shots for national healthcare? From FDA and FBI raids on cherry and dairy farmers to the halls of Congress, we witness the hostile attack on the natural health industry. We witness what happens when a mercenary healthcare system and the failures of a just and fair healthcare policy leaves the US as the 37th healthcare system in the world. The result is the American medical system is broken and corrupted by money rather than scientific fact, and the answer is to create a new medical paradigm that addresses the health of people rather than raising of stock prices, careers and reputations.
