Singing and dancing its way through a gloriously entertaining exposé, Zero Patience, with cheeky defiance and stinging wit, explodes the myths surrounding AIDS and turns conventional thinking on its head. This raunchy romp about sex, science and scapegoats tells the story of Patient Zero, the French Canadian flight attendant accused of bringing AIDS to North America. A celebration of the humour and passion of the lovers, friends and family living with AIDS and those dearly missed who have died from it, Zero Patience is a joyous testament to the human spirit under siege. | |||

buoyantly cheeky sense of humour"
A daring, cinematic gem
