"The Providers" will broadcast nationally on April 8th

The PBS Premiere, it's here!

Dear friends,

On Monday, April 8th at 10/9c, THE PROVIDERS will broadcast nationally on Independent Lens! This is a huge honor. We are thrilled to invite you to tune in to your local PBS station, or stream on pbs.org, for this special broadcast event.

Set against the backdrop of the physician shortage and opioid epidemic in rural America, THE PROVIDERS follows three healthcare providers at a small-town clinic in northern New Mexico. With intimate access, the documentary shows the transformative power of providers' relationships with marginalized patients.

We set out on the journey to make this film nearly 5 years ago, and we could not have done it without all of you! Heartfelt thanks to all who supported us along the way -- we are so excited to share the film with you.

With much gratitude,

Laura Green & Anna Moot-Levin
Directors, THE PROVIDERS
