Summaries

A collection of profiles of people dead from AIDS who are remembered in the AIDS Memorial Quilt.

This film recounts the lives and deaths of various victims of AIDS who are commemorated in the AIDS quilt. It is a massive cloth collecting each piece as a memorial for each victim of the disease to both show the death toll and to show the humanity of the victims to those who would rather demonize them.—Kenneth Chisholm <[email protected]>
