You Are Here: A Documentary follows a young medical student’s journey into the heart of rural Africa to volunteer at a community health clinic run by a retired American physician. Through his experiences there, the film examines the question of why, after 30 years and billions of dollars of aid effort to Africa, have many regions of this troubled part of the globe gotten statistically worse? The project, both a social justice film and a character study, takes on some of the most troubling problems in Africa on a micro level. Through the eyes of a westerner, You Are Here: A Documentary explores the beautiful strangeness of Africa as well as its great potential for both hope and disaster.
