The Face of AIDS is a poignant exploration of a singular moment in the AIDS crisis, focusing on the haunting image of David Kirby. This short documentary takes a deep dive into the ripple effects of Therese Frare's photograph, which stirred a lot of discussion when it appeared in a United Colors of Benetton ad back in '92. The atmosphere is heavy, with a sense of urgency and raw emotion as it reflects on the intersection of art, activism, and societal reaction. The pacing allows you to sit with the gravity of the subject matter, while drawing in the viewer through the personal and collective struggles faced during that time. It’s a sobering reminder of the power of imagery and advocacy.
