In celebration of International Women's Day and Endometriosis Awareness Month, Zinc VC and Frontline Ventures are hosting a special screening of this powerful film on a mission to help save lives
Below the Belt: The Last Health Taboo
As four patients urgently search for answers to mysterious symptoms, Below the Belt exposes widespread problems in our healthcare systems that disproportionately affect women. From societal taboos and gender bias to misinformed doctors and financial barriers to care, the film reveals how millions are silenced and how, by fighting back, we can improve healthcare for everyone.
The screening will be followed by a live panel discussion with Director Shannon Cohn (and other TBA special guests) and a Q&A session with the audience.
Admission to see the film is free, but a minimum contribution of £10 is suggested to support the film's impact campaign. All proceeds will go to the campaign to help bring the film to medical schools, doctors’ offices, primary and secondary schools, universities, and the general public in a global movement for change.
