Facilitator’s Guide

Knowledge is power

The successful prevention and treatment of breast cancer depend on this. What is special about this film is that resilient women from various ages, stages of breast cancer, and ethnic, geographic, and socio-economic backgrounds share their journeys as they cross into and return from, the world of Breast Cancer.

Breast Cancer is not only an epidemic but also a culturally specific phenomenon. “One size does not fit all” when looking at each individual’s circumstances and cultural context.

This Facilitator's Film & Program Guide produced by the filmmaker and NIH/National Library of Medicine includes film notes, discussion questions, research ideas, and valuable resources for further information to engage with and accompany a screening of the documentary film LIFE INTERRUPTED.
