MALARIA: RETURN TO FEVER ROAD
15th April 2009
Fever Road is a close personal account which reveals the harsh realities of Malaria within a rural Kenyan village community.
First shown in 2004 this version includes an update reporting the changes in the village and attitudes to Malaria as a direct result of the transmission in the UK of the original film.
Malaria is the deadliest disease in the world, killing millions every year.
Fever Road tells the story of Peter Kombo, Chief of Kiagware village in Kenya, as he battles through the malaria season.
Many of his villagers, particularly the young, are dangerously sick, and Chief Kombo struggles to get help for them from local authorities.
He is faced with a deadly dilemma - stop treating the sick altogether or turn to local herbalists and untrained doctors.
