Synopsis
This provocative documentary focuses on the story of Janice Jirau, an HIV-positive African-American woman, as she reveals why she was at high risk and what she did when she discovered she'd been infected. A chorus of other HIV-positive women underscores the universal nature of the problems Janice confronted and draws attention to the alarming growth of the epidemic among women.
