The AIDS Club
Synopsis
Taking its title from a sensational telenovela episode, El Club del SIDA cycles through a lifetime of heavily stigmatizing images about HIV and AIDS. Delgado plays with multiple aesthetics—documentary, horror, comedy—to explore the various relationships he has had with AIDS over the course of his life. Commissioned by Visual AIDS in 2024 as part of Red Reminds Me..., a program of seven videos reflecting the emotional spectrum of living with HIV today.
