How to Survive a Plague
Aroview: Oscar-nominated documentary about the collaboration between two activist groups - ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power) and TAG (Treatment Action Group) - to pressure the America Government and pharmaceutical companies to find and provide treatments for HIV/AIDS during the 1980's. Director David France, who had been covering the campaign from the start, tells this story using a wealth of archival footage: news coverage, interviews and films of demonstrations, meetings and conferences. A valuable document of a triumph in HIV/AIDS activism.
