STIGMA (Phill Schwartz, 2012, USA, 26 min)
Peter's view of the world changes when he receives life altering news. On a summer day in Los Angeles, Peter wakes up and begins his daily routine. This routine screeches to a halt when Peter tests positive for HIV. He drones on through his normal day, unsure of what to do or who...if anyone, to tell. Feeling his humanity like never before, Peter sets out on a journey of self discovery and acceptance.
