How to Survive A Plague

How to Survive a Plague tells the untold story of the intensive efforts to turn AIDS into a manageable condition, and the surprising pivotal role played by an improbable group of (mostly HIV-positive) young men and women who helped identify the breakthrough compounds, moving them into drugstores in record time.

Unstable Elements

Unstable Elements tracks an underground resistance group fighting for human rights in Belarus. The members of the Belarus Free Theater risk their lives staging illicit performances and campaigning around the world to expose what life is truly like under the last dictatorship in Europe.
