Longtime Companion
Longtime Companion follows the lives of a tiny circle of friends from the first mention of this disorder in the New York Times from 1981. First described as"Gay-Related-Immune-Disorder," we see that the effect of this disorder as it devastates the lives of the protagonists. Constructed between Fire and Manhattan Island, vignettes take us from the it-couldn't-happen-to-me mindset of their ancient days of this disorder into the effect it's had today. This film's name arises from the New York Times' refusal to acknowledge homosexual relationships in their obituary section during this period. Instead, survivors were known to as"Longtime Companions" of this deceased
