What if you could help prevent one of the most dangerous health conditions, affecting approximately 1.4 billion people? INACTIVE is an eyebrow raising look into the impact that inactivity has on youth and in the future. This iconic movie reveals the deep seeded worldwide health crisis linked to childhood obesity, which the World Health Organization (WHO) outlined as one of the most serious public health challenges of the 21st Century. Despite the exceptional advancements in medicine and technology, WHO estimates around 500 million people will suffer from "heart disease, obesity, diabetes or other noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) directly attributable to physical inactivity within the next decade. That number will continue to increase if no actions are taken to promote increased levels of physical activity.
Your body was designed to move. Centuries of evolution have also gone into the creation of systems that comprise human physique and its’ ability to move. INACTIVE demonstrates how we can go back in time, while explaining how some of the most dangerous diseases can now be cured when communication knows no bounds and there is readily information 24/7. Hence, and despite inactivity posing a major risk to the prosperity of our global communities, health experts from across the globe have collaborated to establish potential solutions to fight this silent but deadly killer.

Sarah Perry from https://www.adenperrygoodsamaritanandscholarshipfund.org/ beautifully expresses the story of her heroic student Aden Spencer Perry, who died attempting to save a man from drowning, Sunrise, Florida, April 19, 2022. Shortly after Aden entered the pond, the car, the man, and Aden all submerged. The Aden Perry Hero Life Ring Initiative was created in honor of Aden and his final and most Heroic Act. To save lives and prevent another Good Samaritan from suffering the same fate, Sarah is on a mission to have one of Aden's Hero Life Rings with his image and Hero message on them installed in every city and body of water possible. As a result, the next time there is someone in distress in the water, there will be something there to be used to save a life.
