US filmmaker Aaron Biebert is on a mission to expose the truth about the pharmaceutical industry and the vaping world.
The idea for “A Billion Lives”, ‘a true story of the government failure, big business and the vaping revolution’ was born out of Biebert’s frustration about the mistruths popularised by the media, which could negatively influence the public’s opinion of e-cigarettes, and potentially cost lives. “I have friends that quit smoking after taking up vaping and I was concerned to see that e-cigarettes were worse. After I mentioned that study to a vaper, they pointed me to one scientist’s rebuttal showing that the entire study was built on the false premise of overheating the liquid. The entire study was a sham.”
The name of the documentary comes from the frequently quoted billion lives that could be lost due to tobacco smoke-related diseases by the end of the 21 st century. multiCIG are really excited to see A Billion Lives later this year when its released, but if you can watch a trailer here:
