Summer of Love

About This Movie

Summer of Love is this fascinating blend of documentary and public service announcement, made for the American Foundation for AIDS Research. It has a raw, almost candid feel, bringing together a mix of artists and thinkers like The B-52’s and David Byrne, alongside literary figures like Allen Ginsburg and Quentin Crisp. The atmosphere is quite reflective, diving into the themes of love, acceptance, and the harsh realities of the AIDS crisis. The pacing feels a bit erratic at times, but that's part of its charm—like a snapshot of a turbulent era. It’s not just a film; it’s a moment in history, capturing voices that were essential during a critical time.
