Our take
The provocatively titled God has AIDS is a rallying cry against HIV stigma, giving a voice to the invisible in Bolsonaro’s Brazil. From acclaimed queer filmmakers Gustavo Vinagre & Fábio Leal, this vividly transgressive documentary marshals theatricality and artifice to express its authentic vision.
