Prescription for Discrimination:

Prescription for Discrimination is a feature documentary about one man’s encounter with discrimination at the height of the AIDS crisis—and the chain of events that followed when he refused to quietly accept it.

Set against the fear, stigma, and political urgency of the early 1990s, the film follows a deeply personal story that gradually opens onto something much larger: a community learning how to organize, speak publicly, build institutions, and demand dignity at a moment when silence could carry enormous consequences.

Moving between personal memory, archival history, and the voices of those who lived through the era, Prescription for Discrimination examines the people and relationships behind social change—not simply the battles that made headlines, but the quieter acts of courage, persistence, friendship, and collective responsibility that made those battles possible.

More than three decades later, the story resonates far beyond its historical moment. The film asks what progress remembers, what it forgets, and what happens when an individual act of resistance becomes part of a larger struggle over whose lives are valued, protected, and allowed to be seen.
