And the Band Played On
A deadly epidemic is spreading around the world. But when it first began, no one paid attention. Not the government, not health officials, not the press--not even the people who were dying. By the time we awoke up to the danger, it was too late...and thousands continue to die. Matthew Modine stars in this medical thriller as a young doctor tracking the disease halfway around the world and across two continents--and whose work is thwarted at every turn by fear, official indifference and bitter medical rivalries.
