Antibiotics as Protection: A film about antibiotic use in pig and poultry production in Wakiso district, Uganda. The film depicts everyday life on peri-urban pig and poultry farms in Wakiso district in relation to the use of antibiotic medicines. It highlights the magnitude of finances invested in production versus threats that compromise profits. Irrespective of adoption of modern biosecurity measures, production is precarious. In this case, antibiotics have become a recipe, shifting connections away from treatment and prevention to economic concerns regarding profitability and protection of financial investments. The film is hosted on Youtube at https://youtu.be/TEFe_hz7qNQ.
