Town Hall: Lights, Camera, Conversation

We’re trading the usual town hall format this year for a theatre-style documentary screening and post-film conversation designed for real talk, real connection, and real takeaways.

Date: Monday, April 13, 2026
Time: 4:45pm – 6:45pm PT
Location: Grand III

This screening is included with conference registration. No RSVP and no ticket purchase are required. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis, so plan to arrive early.

About the Film

Suck It Up, Buttercup examines how corporate influence and profit pressures are reshaping healthcare, and what that can mean for physicians and patients. It brings real voices and real stakes to the screen, and it asks a simple question with complicated answers: what happens when business priorities collide with the promise of care?

Why AAEM Is Involved

AAEM is an Executive Producer of Suck It Up, Buttercup. We are proud to support this film and to bring it to our conference because the conversations it sparks are timely, human, and hard to ignore.
