Synopsis

See Me is a film honoring real life stories. It’s a heartfelt deep dive into experiences of young people living with HIV/AIDS and how they were affected by Covid-19 lockdown restrictions using the 6 pillars of creativity: Film, Poetry, Music, Photography, Visuals and Dance.

Though long forgotten now and the scars still remain, the film takes us through some of the struggles encountered by young people living with HIV and AIDS during Covid Lockdowns, including stigma discrimination, mental health, gender-based violence and a plethora of themes encountered in gathering these stories.

We walk in their shoes again, we see through their eyes again, and we live with them and we go through what they went through again, feeling what they felt as they continue to ask time and time again: Do You See Me...? Because what they have to deal with matters, it is still a reality for many today. We hope this film, based on real life experiences, brings hope and sheds light on how we see each other.
