How to Survive a Plague
An inspiring story of tenacity and social action in the fight against AIDS.
Overview
In this Oscar-nominated documentary, director David France tells an astonishing story about AIDS survival. Most people know that substantial gains have been made in the treatment of the HIV virus but how many know how this came about? Activists, many HIV-positive themselves, defied government agencies, infiltrated the pharmaceutical industry and helped identify promising new HIV treatments. In doing so they turned AIDS from a death sentence into a much more manageable disease.
With never-before-seen archival footage of the 80’s and 90’s and present-day interviews, How to Survive a Plague is a powerful and inspiring story of tenacity and social action. This is how you change the world.
