To the outside world, Washington, D.C. is a city of gleaming white monuments and powerful people. The White House, the Capitol Building and President Obama. But that is the public face—there is another city, the one experienced by those who live here, the city that is in the throes of an HIV/AIDS epidemic. Three percent of DC residents are infected with HIV, a rate that far surpasses the CDC’s one percent threshold for “severe epidemic.” This film tells the story of those in the city living with HIV/AIDS and the government inaction that allowed the epidemic to spiral out of control.
