Absolutely Positive
1991, English. Directed by Peter Adair.
The nice thing about having a serious disease is that it's okay to say anything you want, and people put up with it.
11 people — women and men, gay and straight, from all walks of life — share their stories. Alternately irreverent, candid and soulful, this stirring film is not about being sick; it is about being true to the emotional complexity of being mortal.
