"Dallas Buyers Club" is a 2013 film based on the true story of Ron Woodroof, a Texas electrician diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in the 1980s. Faced with a grim prognosis and limited treatment options, he discovers alternative therapies and begins to smuggle unapproved medications from Mexico to help himself and others suffering from the disease.
As he navigates the challenges of his illness, Woodroof establishes the Dallas Buyers Club, a cooperative that provides access to these treatments for members. The film highlights the struggles of the LGBTQ+ community during the AIDS crisis and the fight for better healthcare and drug access.
