Reframing AIDS (1987)
Documentary
Story
Through a series of interviews with leading British AIDS activists and cultural theorists, this documentary investigates the way in which AIDS has been used by the media and by the government to increase state harassment of gay men and lesbians, black people and women. Framing the problem in terms of a left politic, the tape reveals how both homophobia and puritanism have been responsible for the slow government response to AIDS.
Director: Pratibha Parmar Starring: Simon Watney, Isaac Julien, Stuart Marshall, Sue O’Sullivan
