ASK ME I‘M POSITIVE (IFFI 14)

2004, South Africa

Teboho Edkins

Thabo, Thabiso, and Moalosi are young, urban Basotho men on a mission. They travel with a mobile cinema unit through the mountains of Lesotho, screening their film to very remote communities. In a country where almost a third of the people are HIV-positive, they are the nucleus of a tiny group who are living openly with the virus. They are pioneers and publicly declare their HIV–positive status. They are also film stars and are attractive to women.

Ein ernst dreinblickender Mann sitzt in einem Haus und sieht eine andere Person an. Am unteren Rand steht in fetter gelber Schrift: "ASK ME I'M POSITIVE, ein Film von TedOho Edkins". Der Hintergrund ist sanft verschwommen.
