In the summer of 1975, 27 patients experienced respiratory failure and 11 patients died during a six-week period at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Ann Arbor. In June 1976, after an intense FBI investigation, officials charged two Filipina nurses — Filipina Narciso and Leonora Perez — with injecting the patients with the muscle relaxant Pavulon.
Through interviews, archival news stories, and FBI documents obtained via Freedom of Information Act requests, the hour-long film “That Strange Summer” reconstructs the investigation, trial and movement to release the two nurses, who were convicted of poisoning the patients.
