23rd TDF: Greek Premiere

A dark, poetic adaptation of the infamous Groningen Case, in which three men drugged other men and infected them with their own HIV-infected blood. Unfolding over seven individual vignettes, each shot in collaboration with a different cinematographer, the film blends reportage and surrealism, disbelief and empathy to unpack the repercussions of a singularly shocking series of events. A bold and provocative documentary that skillfully reflects the questions of life, death and morality.
