Escape Fire tackles one of the most pressing issues of our time: what can be done to save our broken medical system? Award-winning filmmakers Matthew Heineman and Susan Froemke follow 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 examines the powerful forces trying to maintain the status quo in an 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 is about finding a way out. It's about saving the health of a nation. -- (C) Official Site

Movie Overview For Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare
Our healthcare system is broken. Potent forces fight to maintain the status quo in a medical industry created for quick fixes, rather than prevention; for profit-driven, rather than patient-driven, care. Healthcare is at the center of an intense political firestorm in our nation's capital. But the current battle over cost and access does not ultimately address the root of the problem: we have a disease-care system, not a health-care one. After decades of opposition, a movement to introduce innovative high-touch, low-cost methods of prevention and healing is finally gaining ground.

Review For Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare

This swiftly paced documentary assembles expert talking heads and real-world patients and practitioners to discuss defusing the ticking time bomb of American health care costs.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune

There's no escaping the fact that the sheer profusion of similarly-themed efforts in recent years reduces their individual impact.
Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter

Matthew Heineman and Susan Froemke's sobering, often infuriating documentary about medical care in 21st-century America.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post

The film is surprisingly optimistic, arguing that there are genuine, practical answers to many of the problems afflicting the system, and some are already being adopted.
Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle

Arranged in a handful of clear, concise chapters, "Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare" turns an unwieldy, Medusa-headed topic into a convincingly humane argument for change.
Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times

Cogent, 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.
Kenneth Turan-Los Angeles Times

A more sweeping look at the assumptions behind American healthcare
Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit

Suffers from some jumbled editing, but has the benefit of enormously sympathetic subjects, and rather persuasively suggests a collective societal myopia on the subject of health care.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com

Dry doings but certainly important and thorough.
Clint O'Connor-Cleveland Plain Dealer

It's enough to raise one's blood pressure, if it weren't elevated already.
Tricia Olszewski-Washington City Paper

"Escape Fire" will be a learning and thought provoking experience.
Robin Clifford-Reeling Reviews

One of those rare gems that concentrates on solutions to a problem rather than just hopelessly presenting one.
Christopher Campbell-Movies.com

The 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.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune

Health 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.
Ben Kenigsberg-Time Out Chicago

Ninety-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.
Mike McGranaghan-Aisle Seat

A condemnation of the US health system in general, like Michael Moore's Sicko, sans the self-aggrandizing.
Tom Meek-Boston Phoenix
