The Battle of Amfar is a compelling documentary that dives into the early days of the AIDS crisis. It’s fascinating to see how Dr. Mathilde Krim, with her scientific acumen, and the glamorous Elizabeth Taylor, wielding her fame, came together to form amfAR. The tone is both urgent and reflective, capturing the daunting atmosphere of the 1980s. The pacing does a good job of balancing historical context with the emotional weight of personal stories. There’s a rawness to the interviews and archival footage that really pulls you in. It’s a unique look at activism, combining science and celebrity in a way that feels both personal and impactful. Definitely stands out in the documentary genre.
