Directed by David Weissman • 2011 • United States
One of the most moving and cathartic films made yet about the AIDS crisis, David Weissman’s WE WERE HERE recounts the impact that the so-called “gay plague” had upon San Francisco’s vibrant queer community in the early 1980s. Through the intimate recollections of five longtime San Franciscans whose lives were transformed by the epidemic, this stirring documentary recounts not only the heartbreak and fear that swept through the community, but also the inspiring courage and grace of those who came together to fight for survival.
