About this Event

Short Films for World AIDS Day – a fundraiser for The Dolls

On World AIDS Day, we come together at Moviemento, to watch five short films from Brazil, the USA, Greece, Canada and France. Together they tell stories of HIV through trans and queer resistance, chosen family, activism, memory and tenderness. The program moves from grief and loss to defiance and revival, honoring those we've lost and celebrating those still living, loving and fighting.

TBC THE FILMS (approx. 65 min)

• Scorpionikas – counter-manifesto (Brazil, 2025): a defiant trans manifesto against the (cis)tem
