COMMENTS FROM SOME OF OUR CONTRIBUTORS

John M: “I donated $50 to this important documentary yesterday. It is vital that the eyewitness accounts of these doctors be preserved so future generations will know the truth of what happened that day in Dallas.”

Bradford writes: “Just donated $63.00 to fund the documentary “The Parkland Doctors.”. If we all chip in what we can, this film project will become a reality and help to spread the truth.”

Jeff M: “I gave $63 on Indiegogo to support completion of this documentary, “The Parkland Doctors,” and so should you. Bringing together all these doctors to recount their experience in simple factual style will help complete and clarify the historical record of JFK’s assassination.”

James P. “Of course I will help you and I just donated $63.00.  I know in the future the download will be available for everyone, but I just wanted to help with the cause.  I have read over 200 books about the assassination and I have visited by email with some of the major authors of these books.”




Dallas, Texas.  November 22, 1963.  The thirty-fifth President of the United States is gunned down.  As the world watches in horror, the news fumbles into action desperately trying to make sense of the inconceivable.  Still holding on to life, JFK arrives at Parkland Hospital.  Inside Trauma Room 1 a group of young doctors springs into action in a valiant attempt to save John F. Kennedy's fleeting life. The Parkland Doctors is the eyewitness account of seven of the doctors who were in the emergency room and reunite for the first time since that day.  

 
 

This film fills a hole in history.

In every other documentary about the assassination the President is shot, he is taken to Parkland Hospital and then we're told he is dead. Nobody ever goes into Trauma Room 1 to document what happened. WE DO! 

No one has ever brought the doctors, who were there, together to find out how what they did and what they saw correlates to the findings of the autopsy, the Warren Commission Report and the House Select Committee on Assassinations. WE DO! 

This is not another conspiracy theory film. This is the truth from those who were there.

 
Because you can help to bring this story to life in the cinemas, on TV and on digital platforms worldwide!  By backing this campaign you will help us finish the film that we have committed to making and are so close to completing.

Your donation is tax deductible. THE PARKLAND DOCTORS is a fiscally sponsored project of the International Documentary Association (IDA), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Contributions on behalf of THE PARKLAND DOCTORS are payable to IDA and are tax deductible less the value of any goods or services received, as allowed by law. The value of goods and services being offered is noted under each donation level. If you would like to deduct the entire donation you have the option to simply decline the reward at check out. 

For the first time since 11/22/63, seven of the Parkland doctors come together. What happened inside the emergency room as told by the participants sheds new light on that day and the events that followed.  They discuss the resussitation efforts, their fears, their reluctance to talk about their involvement and the after effects of the autopsy.


Our biggest mission is to tell the story that the Parkland Doctors shared with us. It's important that Americans everywhere, and for that matter everyone around the world,  hear the testimony of these doctors and then decide for themselves what really happened and whether the government has told us the truth. 


We are on Indiegogo because we believe that the citizens of the internet have the power to ignite a public debate on this subject. While we need your financial support we also need you to become activists and advocate for the truth. This film is being produced independently and every dollar raised by this campaign is going directly towards completing the film.

Even if you can’t financially contribute, you can still help. Share, Post, Tweet, Snap, Follow and Like.  Use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and any other social media platform that you are on. The more fans we have, the more juice we get from Indiegogo and then sooner the film will be in a theater near you. Help us achieve these goals and unlock special prizes (to be announced).

We have already shot the film and are 80% finished with the edit.  Your support will go towards post production, graphics, archival footage, music, sound and color correction. We're hoping to exceed our $50,000 goal to be able to make a run for an Oscar.
