WHEEL OF CHANGE

 

Written and Directed by Jeta Amata

 

 

 

Starring

(nee Odungide)

  

Themes Explored in the film are:

Peer Pressure

 

MY RATING 45%

 

 

 

The overall message was good and it was a positive thing that they were trying to bring into the open forum, but I was highly disappointed by the film, having hyped it up in my mind before watching it. The scaremongering was ridiculous.

 

 

When people face up to the fact that it is risky behaviour such as unprotected sex and intravenous drug use and other reasons such as mother to child transmission or blood transfusions that has caused this epidemic of worldwide then perhaps things will change.

*************SPOILERS !!!**************

 

 

 

I was angered by the fact that when Christabelle became an advocate and went to an group gathering that around the table when people were sharing their stories none of them claimed to have contracted in those ways. The reasons given were,

 

 

“a manicure”

 

“I didn’t know my gateman was using my toothbrush”

 

“I was french kissing”

 

 

Lets face it… Of the millions of people worldwide living with , how many people have caught from someone using their toothbrush? I have NEVER heard of such a case. When exposed to the air the virus CANNOT survive so to promote such misinformation when dealing with such a serious issue is to do people a DISSERVICE!
