ESCAPE FIRE: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare tackles one of the most pressing issues of our time: what can be done to save our broken medical system? The film examines the powerful forces trying to maintain the status quo in a medical industry designed for quick fixes rather than prevention, for profit-driven care rather than patient-driven care. After decades of resistance, a movement to bring innovative high-touch, low-cost methods of prevention and healing into our high-tech, costly system is finally gaining ground. ESCAPE FIRE follows dramatic human stories as well as leaders fighting to transform healthcare at the highest levels of medicine, industry, government, and even the US military. The film is about a way out, about saving the health of a nation.

Movie Reviews

Washington City Paper - 9/10 by Tricia OlszewskiIt's enough to raise one's blood pressure, if it weren't elevated already.
Aisle Seat - 9/10 by Mike McGranaghanNinety-five straight minutes of information and perspective that will clarify many of the lingering doubts you may have about your medical treatment. Briskly paced, always engaging, and never dry.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertWhen we speak of "American health care," we should in fact be calling it "American sickness care." There's more money to be made in making people sick and healing them than in keeping them well in the first place. The documentary Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare makes this argument with stunning clarity.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kenneth TuranCogent, convincing, determinedly non-ideological, Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare tells us that everything we think we know about that incendiary topic might be wrong. And it offers us a way out of the morass.
The Playlist - 8/10 by Katie WalshUltimately, while 'Escape Fire' proposes numerous options for changing the system-- getting Medicare to cover healthy lifestyle counseling programs, incentivizing doctors to spend time with patients, and patients to empower their own health-- the one that is most poignant is that people should spend the time to take care of each other.
Boston Phoenix - 8/10 by Tom MeekA condemnation of the US health system in general, like Michael Moore's Sicko, sans the self-aggrandizing.
New York Times - 8/10 by Jeannette CatsoulisAdvocating freedom from a system that "doesn't want you to die and doesn't want you to get well," this hard-hitting film leaves us finally more hopeful than despairing.
Time Out Chicago - 8/10 by Ben KenigsbergHealth care is a difficult subject to make compelling onscreen -- much less in a nonpartisan manner -- which makes Escape Fire a documentary with major breakout potential.
Salt Lake Tribune - 8/10 by Sean P. MeansThe most compelling parts of the film talk about how the military, dealing with injured and traumatized soldiers from two wars, is in the vanguard of trying new treatments that help patients and save money.
Movies.com - 8/10 by Christopher CampbellOne of those rare gems that concentrates on solutions to a problem rather than just hopelessly presenting one.
