‘How to Survive a Pandemic’ Director David France: ‘I Despaired for America’ When COVID Swept the Country
从冠状病毒大流行的初期，奥斯卡提名的纪录片制片人戴维·法国（David France）（“如何在鼠疫中生存”）可以感觉到地平线上威胁的规模。一位长期的健康记者已经花了数十年的历史记录了与艾滋病毒和艾滋病的战斗，他还知道，科学将领导世界摆脱前所未有的人类灾难的边缘。 19疫苗一直是最近记忆的决定性故事，正是导演需要记录全球实验室中“伟大的看不见的工作”，导致他的最新功能“如何生存大流行”。 “这是我们一生中最大的科学事业，”法国告诉《综艺》，“应该被记录下来。”“如何在大流行中生存”，本周在塞萨洛尼基纪录片节上首映的是世界上的羽绒镜肖像。世界对Covid-19的反应通过眼睛讲述F领先的科学家，立法者，激进主义者，医护人员以及大流行前线的日常数字。这部电影由公共广场电影制作的HBO纪录片与Impact Partners和Sandbox Films联合制作，由法国和Mira Chang制作，并将在美国的HBO和HBO Max.An Ass.an有抱负的记者，来自Michigan的HBO和HBO Max.an有抱负的记者，法国于1981年移居纽约市，在那里他开始涵盖与艾滋病毒和艾滋病的战斗，这是一种流行病，他的早年在他的奥斯卡金像奖提名的2012年纪录片《如何生存瘟疫》中记录了他的早年。他在科学家和卫生管理官员中建立的关系 - 其中许多人将成为冠状病毒疫苗竞赛中的关键人物 - 导致他被授予他最新电影的前所未有的访问。大流行”以全球科学界的一些领先人物为特色，包括安东尼·富奇博士美国国家过敏和传染病研究所以及美国冠状病毒反应的面孔；美国国立卫生研究院现代疫苗的共同开发者Kizzmekia Corbett博士；辉瑞董事长兼首席执行官Albert Bourla博士；世界卫生组织总监Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus；南非医学研究委员会总裁兼首席执行官格伦达·格雷（Glenda Gray）博士，也是南非的Covid-19反应背后的动力。 （“我从未经历过酸面包短语，”他笑着说。）他联系的第一批人，科学杂志记者乔恩·科恩（Jon Cohen）是免疫学和疫苗学领域的长期专家，他们与法国同时在法国工作。关于1980年代艾滋病毒艾滋病流行的报道。科恩同意在电影上进行咨询，然后有些不情愿地参加了镜头前的核心角色，该角色跟随他的实时EF法国说，堡垒涵盖了迅速发展的全球健康危机。法国说，几种高效的Covid-19疫苗的显着速度代表了“科学成就的巅峰之处”，法国说，即使它在全球范围内的不平等分布代表了一位新闻记者的不平等分布电影称之为“灾难性的道德失败”。董事说：“事实证明，疫苗的成功是如此失控，我们知道科学挑战已经解决。” “还有这个关于政治意愿的故事。进入前总统唐纳德·J·特朗普，巴西总统贾尔·博尔森罗（Jair Bolsonaro）以及阴谋理论家，反vaxxers和科学持怀疑态度的前总统唐纳德·J·特朗普（Donald J. “如何在大流行中生存。”董事说，正是他们广泛的疫苗否认和错误信息导致了无数可预防的死亡，这代表了“最大的全球CHA他为下一个瘟疫做准备。”“有很多人陷入了大流行的受害者，不需要，”他说：“如果我们准确地推出了信息，如果我们已经推出了资源美国工业公司（Industrial America）生产我们将需要的面具以及我们需要的呼吸机。所有这些事情都没有发生。我们都看不到这一点。专业知识不受政治的阻碍，也没有受到污染。”法国说。 “他们在肩上承担了人类的重量。科恩的鞋类，鞋皮的报道也说明了新闻业的关键作用，即削减误解和“假新闻”的迷雾，并“将对科学的信仰卖给世界人民”。 “那个信仰是埃斯登TIAL，对于疫苗接种计划仍然是必不可少的。 [科恩的作品]对我来说是：让科学掌握，提升科学，屏蔽科学脱离假新闻和阴谋理论。董事承认，他“当科维德首次在全国范围内洗过时，他对美国感到绝望”。在一个动荡的选举年中的政治领导人是“混乱”，一系列警察杀害了无武装的黑人男女，暴露了系统性不平等，这将对冠状病毒大流行作出协调的反应，甚至更难实现。这是黑人生活问题运动，以及持续的努力，强调和打击美国在美国的不平等现象，这使法国希望“有可能围绕一个模型重建，该模型承认使该病毒在整个国家的游行中变得如此致命。要求我们解决这些问题他继续说：“问题，这些错误，这些失败并更好地使用了当前政府采用的短语，”他继续说道。“这个目标是一个共同的目标，我希望我们能够能够到达那里。”然而，法国对未来的巨大挑战感到清晰。他说：“在公共卫生领域，我们在政治上失败了，如果失败未解决，当然，历史上的失败将是我们反应的核心失败……对这种威胁的核心失败。”“如果我们不解决这个问题，如果我们不删除民族主义，如果我们不消除贪婪，如果我们不删除这些国家对不承认国家边界的病毒的反应，我们，我们就会每次都会谴责相同的结果。”
From the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker David France (“How to Survive a Plague”) could sense the scale of the threat looming on the horizon. A long-time health reporter who has spent decades documenting the battle against HIV and AIDS, he also knew that it would be up to science to lead the world from the brink of an unprecedented human catastrophe.
The race to develop and rollout a COVID-19 vaccine has been the defining story of recent memory, and it was the director's need to document “the great unseen work” performed in laboratories across the world that led to his latest feature, “How to Survive a Pandemic." “This is the largest scientific undertaking of our lifetimes,” France tells Variety, “and it deserved to be chronicled.”
“How to Survive a Pandemic,” which world premieres this week at the Thessaloniki Documentary Festival, is a kaleidoscopic portrait of the world’s response to COVID-19 told through the eyes of leading scientists, lawmakers, activists, healthcare workers, and everyday figures on the pandemic’s frontlines. An HBO documentary produced by Public Square Films in association with Impact Partners and Sandbox Films, the film is written and directed by France and produced by Mira Chang, and will debut in the U.S. on HBO and HBO Max.
An aspiring reporter from Kalamazoo, Michigan, France moved to New York City in 1981, where he began covering the fight against HIV and AIDS, an epidemic whose early years he chronicled in his Academy Award-nominated 2012 documentary “How to Survive a Plague.” The relationships he cultivated among scientists and health administration officials – many of whom would become key figures in the race for a coronavirus vaccine – led to the unprecedented access he was granted to make his latest film.
Shot across five continents, “How to Survive a Pandemic” features some of the global science community’s leading figures, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the face of the coronavirus response in the U.S.; Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett, co-developer of the Moderna vaccine at the U.S. National Institutes of Health; Dr. Albert Bourla, chairman and CEO of Pfizer; World Health Organization director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus; and Dr. Glenda Gray, president and CEO of the South African Medical Research Council, and a driving force behind South Africa’s COVID-19 response.
France began filming within weeks of the March 2020 lockdown. (“I never went through the sourdough bread phrase,” he says, laughing.) One of the first people he contacted, Science Magazine reporter Jon Cohen, is a long-standing expert in the fields of immunology and vaccinology who worked alongside France while reporting on the HIV-AIDS epidemic in the 1980s. Cohen agreed to consult on the film, then somewhat reluctantly came on board to play a central role in front of the camera, which follows his real-time efforts to cover a rapidly evolving global health crisis.
The remarkable speed with which several highly effective COVID-19 vaccines were developed represents “the pinnacle of scientific achievement,” says France, even as its unequal distribution across the globe represents what one journalist in the film calls a “catastrophic moral failure.” “The vaccines turned out to be such runaway successes, and we knew that the scientific challenge had been addressed,” says the director. “What remained was this story of political will. And that’s where the whole response to the pandemic took a turn that was unexpected.”
Enter former President Donald J. Trump, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, and a coterie of conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxxers, and science skeptics who populate the second half of “How to Survive a Pandemic.” It was their widespread vaccine denialism and misinformation that the director says led to countless preventable deaths and represents “the biggest global challenge to preparing the world for the next plague.”
“There are so many people who have fallen victim to the pandemic who needn’t have,” he says, “if we had rolled out information accurately, if we had rolled out the resources of industrial America to manufacture the masks that we were going to need and the ventilators we were going to need. All those things didn’t happen. And we all watched it not happen.”
In an age of unreason, “How to Survive a Pandemic” presents a passionate defense of science, its heroes the “white-coated lab dwellers” who “were activists around the question of making sure that expertise is unhindered and unpolluted by politics,” says France. “They took on the weight of humanity on their shoulders. They knew that every moment counted.”
Cohen’s cogent, shoe-leather reporting also illustrates the critical role of journalism to cut through the fog of misinformation and “fake news" and to "sell faith in science to the world’s people,” says France. “That faith was essential and remains essential for the vaccination program. represented that for me: holding science to account, lifting science up, shielding science from fake news and conspiracy theory.”
As the U.S. commemorates the second anniversary of the first, sweeping lockdowns that took hold in the spring of 2020, the director admits he “despaired for America when COVID first washed across the country.” The political leadership in a volatile election year was “chaotic,” and a series of police killings of unarmed black men and women exposed systemic inequalities that would make a coordinated response to the coronavirus pandemic even harder to achieve.
It was the Black Lives Matter movement, and its sustained efforts to highlight and combat that inequality in America, that gave France hope that “it would be possible to rebuild around a model that recognizes the errors that allowed this virus to be so deadly in its march across the country.
“People are demanding that we address those problems, those errors, those failures, and build back better, to use a phrase that has been co-opted by the current administration,” he continues. “That goal is a shared goal, and I feel hopeful that we might be able to get there.”
France is nevertheless clear-eyed about the monumental challenge that lies ahead. “We have failed politically in the area of public health and that failure, if it’s unaddressed, certainly that failure will go down in history as being the central failure of our response…to this threat,” he says. “If we don’t resolve that problem, if we don’t remove nationalism, and if we don’t remove greed, if we don’t remove these national borders around our response to a virus that recognizes no national borders, then we are condemned to the same outcome every time.”
