Soft Power HealthA film by Polly Green Three years after the debut of her first short, Nomads, filmmaker Polly Green returns to Uganda to follow the progress of Soft Power Health, the non-profit organization started by kayaker/doctor Jessie Stone. While Nomads profiled three women kayakers each with a different passion to help others, Green’s new film, aptly called “Soft Power Health,” explores in depth what Soft Power Health does today. Green has cleverly integrated paddling shots and Nile river views throughout the film, but the focus is on the organizations work on land. Picking up where Nomads left off, Green shows the Soft Power Health clinic and several health outreach programs, including the incredible progress of the first one that Dr. Stone started, the malaria education and prevention program. With the rapid construction of the Silverback Dam on the Nile river, Green captures beautiful shots of what will soon be gone, something that all of us will be grateful to have forever.
