Feature length documentary

General Discussion Media & Awareness
#1

Hi All

I’m thinking about producing a feature length documentary on finasteride and the side effects we are all suffering.

My idea is to have a bunch of us talk about our experiences, struggles and previous life. I think we could also get friends and family to comment on how it’s changed you.

So firstly would people be willing to go on camera and share your story (we can blur your face if you want)

If you are interested I would be giving you a list of questions which I would ask for you to answer on camera.

Anyway let me know your thoughts on this.

I think it’s a good idea.

But remember this is an altered state, you are not stuck like this.

I think that it is a fantastic idea. I also think that other documentary makers would be interested in telling this story as I am sure that it would have a very wide appeal. Documentary films have experienced a bit of a renaissance of late when you think of such films as An Inconvenient Truth or even Michael Moore’s docs. Beyond the suffering of the myriad of men hoodwinked by Merck, the story of how big pharma routinely gambles with the lives of its customers is of interest to all (see the new book Bad Pharma by Ben Goldacre) and really should be shouted from the roof tops. I think if more people also knew of propecia’s origins as well re: the pseudo-hermaphrodites then it would deliver an even bigger impact.

Very good idea!

#8

Michael Moore is one guy I would love to have cover our story through film. Anyone know him by chance? Lol

#9

Yes I’d like to see him show up at Merck HQ with pictures of suicide victims from propecia… and maybe even some pics of the ppl who died from vioxx.

What a great idea. Is there a real chance that you could get something like this on TV though?
