SynopsisMore than a decade after the fall of the Iron Curtain and the overthrow and execution of brutal Romanian dictator Nicholas Ceausescu, the worst AIDS epidemic among children in the world bears out its infamous legacy in Romania, still one of the poorest and most fractured societies in Eastern Europe., Two decades after the fall of the iron curtain the worst AIDS epidemic among children bears out its infamous legacy in Romania. Beginning in 1994, Magnum Photographer Kent Klich documented the appalling aftermath of Ceausescu's horror. He offers visceral images and brief life stories from the boys and girls who still suffer from the state's mass experiment. Compassionate yet unflinching, the images are a glimpse of the daily lives of the children. Includes a essay by 2009 Nobel Award Winner, Herta Muller., Deeply moving, even shocking, portraits of children with AIDS that are compassionate yet unflinching.
