Synopsis
L’ANSS (Association nationale des séropositifs et sidéens du Burundi) est une association de terrain très active dans le domaine de la lutte contre le Sida. Composée entièrement de Burundais et majoritairement de femmes, l’association prend en charge les malades tant du côté sanitaire qu’alimentaire. Bien que l'atteinte des objectifs demeure le leitmotiv de l'association, il n'empêche que celle-ci doit faire face à de nombreuses difficultés dans ses activités quotidiennes. Jeanne, la présidente fondatrice de l’ANSS, elle-même séropositive, n'hésite nullement à parler de son statut sérologique, comme la plupart des personnes qui travaillent avec elle; afin de déstigmatiser la maladie. Grâce à Jeanne et à son association, plus de 1500 personnes bénéficient de trithérapies.Comments

Dans l'attente de la dernière sortie des Gaulois assiégés à Alésia par les Romains, Apator, riche aristocrate éduen, qui touche à la fin de sa vie, se remémore comment il en est arrivé là. Quelques années plus tôt, il menait un commerce de vin prospère auprès des Romains qui venaient s'approvisionner en Gaule. Cette partie est l'occasion pour le documentaire d'exposer la vie quotidienne des Gaulois dans les dernières années avant la guerre des Gaules. Peu à peu, cet équilibre est remis en cause par Jules César dont l'ambition politique à Rome implique un triomphe militaire et des conquêtes en Gaule. Apator comprend peu à peu que César mine le pouvoir des assemblées gauloises et utilise leurs rivalités pour accroître sa propre influence. Les chefs hostiles à César, dont fait partie Acco, un ami d'Apator, sont minoritaires. Acco est pris et César convoque les chefs gaulois alliés à Rome à Durocortorum pour leur faire approuver sa condamnation à mort, alors que ce sont normalement les druides qui rendent ce type de jugement. Acco est condamné et exécuté, mais Apator se rend compte que César va trop loin. Il entre alors en pourparlers avec un jeune chef ambitieux hostile à César, Vercingétorix. Mais l'unité contre César est loin d'être faite, car Vercingétorix est un Arverne. Or les Arverners et leurs alliés, peuplant grosso modo le centre de la Gaule, s'opposent par une hostilité de longue date aux Éduens et à leurs alliés, situés davantage dans l'est, et sur lesquels Rome s'appuie. Le fils d'Apator, qui compte reprendre son commerce après lui, peine à comprendre le danger que représente César. Apator s'appuie sur sa belle-fille pour financer Vercingétorix et pour tenter de persuader son fils.

Victorian adventurer and sexologist Sir Richard Francis Burton (John Robinson), following an "unfortunate encounter" with the Fountain of Youth in 1892, is 170 years old and living in Toronto, Canada. Burton, now living and working as the chief taxidermist at a Museum of Natural History, is searching for a centerpiece display for an exhibit in his Hall of Contagion. He comes up with the idea of featuring AIDS and the Patient Zero hypothesis. Accepting the popular belief that Zero introduced the virus to North America, Burton sets out to collect video footage from those who knew Zero to support the hypothesis. When Zero's doctor (Brenda Kamino), mother (Charlotte Boisjoli) and former airline colleague Mary (Dianne Heatherington), who is now with ACT UP, all refuse to demonize Zero, Burton manipulates the footage to make it appear as if they do and includes doctored photographs of Zero showing signs of Kaposi's sarcoma. He presents this preliminary version to the press.
