I just discovered this short subject documentary today. It was nominated for an Academy Award this year and is still making the rounds of film festivals (so unfortunately I can't see it yet). I thought some of the folks here would be interested too:

It's so sad to see that many people in third world countries die from a completely fixable problem every year. The doctor in the trailer says 300,000! They are also raising funds for the heart center - where it costs just $2500 per operation.
 
Thank you for sharing this information with us, Michele! It is indeed truly sad that so many people in 3rd world countries continue to die from such a fixable disease.

I hope I get to see this documentary also!
