Under The Eightball
We often forget the distance of time, time seems weightless...
until we lose the ability to make more memories...
A film by Timothy Grey
The Story
Under the Eightball is a film about my sister, Lori Hall-Steele's,
struggle with a mysterious disease and her family's desperate attempt
to save her life.
This documentary ventures further than merely a disease,
it examines the systemic failures of our health care,
insurance, and pharmaceutical industries.
The audience becomes witness to an ambivalent medical
community who's attitude can only be described as a tragic failure.
This is a cautionary tale --- warning the viewer that this story is
not the exception but one that is all too common.
A truth that lives in our cities, on our streets, in our homes.
The victims are our neighbors, friends, parents, siblings and children.
The victims are us...
