Dare to Dream Film

The year is 2001 and Bush has just taken office. Eight young people from 
across the US begin the adventure of a lifetime — to follow their dreams 
to study medicine — in Cuba.

This film tells the story of the largest medical school in the world, 
the Latin American Medical School (ELAM as it is known in Spanish) in 
Havana, Cuba through the eyes of US students who received scholarships 
with the commitment to practice medicine in under-served communities.

Through the stories of ELAM graduates, we learn the history of this 
medical school that is revolutionizing healthcare on a global level. 
Cuba has emerged over the last 50 years as a global health leader 
through an emphasis on preventative and primary care and a commitment to 
improving the health of economically struggling communities around the 
world. Grassroots leaders and activists in both the US and Cuba dared to 
make the school and scholarships a reality — at a time when Cuba 
suffered brutal economic pressure as the US government tightened its 
blockade against the island nation.

Can one medical school change the world?
