Positive or Not – A Documentary About HIV

How is it to hear the words “you are HIV positive” at the age of 20? How do you tell your family and friends?

Around 150 people between the ages of 15 and 25 are HIV positive in Denmark. In this short documentary we follow the story of both Lasse and Atle. Lasse was diagnosed with HIV when he was 20 years old. Atle is now at that age, and has decided to take an HIV test for the first time.

This documentary is made by Sophia Shefner, Sarah Corridon and Atle Syversen – students at the Danish School of Media and Journalism.

Produced in 2013.
