| Synopsis |
|
In this semi-silent, black and white film, a young woman in college has
her sights on a man that holds a secret lifestyle that is revealed after
she has a night of passionate unprotected sex with him. Through animated
battle scenes we see how the HIV Virus attacks her body from within.
Blended with jazz music and specs of RED colors to symbolize caution, we
see how a pretty face can have rotten insides. BIO: Mya Baker is a young filmmaker born and raised in Chi-town.
