ABOUT THE FILM
Volume 14 of Steps for the Future a 25 cassette series on AIDS in Southern Africa.
"HIV is not a death sentence!" say the HIV+ group from Khayelitsha. They tell their stories in a series of short films which are then screened at taxi stands and shopping malls in Cape Town's townships. This powerful film about courage in the face of death includes footage of the group process, the short films themselves and their public screenings. Although they were too young to be part of the struggle against apartheid, they face a new struggle in their lifetime. They decide to call the film A Luta Continua - the struggle continues.
