Following a successful run at film festivals, where it won several awards, Undetectable has now been released online for us all to watch.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Adam, a gay man living with undetectable HIV, must confront the guilt tormenting him in his dreams after betraying and infecting his now dying ex-lover, Raphael. As Adam sets out to reconnect with Raphael on the anniversary of their diagnosis, he discovers that they have both been living nightmares of their own.’
While the bare bones of the plot might sounds like it’s a short that will continue the sidelining and stigmatising of people with HIV, it tries to tread the fine line of remaining neutral about the disease while dealing with the internal struggle of those who have passed HIV to others, as well as the anger and frustration of those who have have contracted the condition.
It is a bit weird and creepy though.
