In the African nation of Malawi, one in three sexually active adults is HIV positive. People are dying of AIDS at an alarming rate, yet almost no one talks about it: this culture of silence is maintained by a population that fears the social stigma of the disease. Despite this, a growing coalition of activists -- often openly HIV positive individuals -- use education to fight the shame and ignorance that have allowed AIDS to spread. By focusing on one small country, DYING IN SILENCE takes an intimate, personal look at a disease that does not just threaten to decimate an isolated region, but the entire planet.
