A gay jewish man speaks out about living with and dying from AIDS. He also discusses how being gay has affected his identity as a jew and his relationship with his parents.

In the spring of 1988, video artist/activist Gregg Bordowitz tested HIV-positive, quit drinking and doing drugs, and came out to his parents about his homosexuality. This imaginative film, which came to include a questioning of his understanding of the diagnosis and of the relationship between illness and history, is a kaleidoscopic blast of visual stimulation, intellectual irreverence, and emotional confrontation. “The riskiest film about AIDS made to date. Finally someone has the guts to face despair honestly and without a trace of self-pity… angry, mournful, cynical, funny, moving and wise” - Douglas Crimp
