I had the pleasure of catching this ground-breaking documentary at the Riverdance Film Festival in early October. The organiser even called it 'possibly THE most incredible example of documentary film making I have ever seen'. And I have to agree.
Let me get one thing straight up front.
If asking more questions instantly defines a person as a denialist then alarm bells should ring red hot. It is for this simple basis of asking the RIGHT questions, such as 'what is the difference between HIV and AIDS' or 'have the drugs improved the health of patients', that line the Director up for attack.
As a person diagnosed with HIV for over 16 years, and never once taking the drugs, I wholeheartedly applaud this timely film. It moved me to tears, I shook my fist at the screen in disgust, and simultaneously felt an unusual sense of humanitarianism pour from a film about a most tragic world health disaster.
See it with a truly open mind and without prejudice. In years to come you might be able to say you were part of turning of the tide.
