  Where to Watch

Based on the true-life story of Alison (Ali) Gertz: one pretty, intelligent, middle-class, and HIV/AIDS stricken young woman. Molly Ringwald plays Gertz, who must come to terms with her illness and all of the lives affected by it; this unknown new disease and the dealings of ignorance that were the 1980s. This is Alison Gertz's story via her teachings of her condition to a world still waking up to this social stigma, and of her courage, sadness, and love in her short life.
