Eyes That Fail to See

Drama

This early HIV/AIDS film uses the popular and compelling narrative format of the telenovela to illuminate the effects of AIDS on a cross-section ofthe Latino community in Northern California. Different families and individual characters address complex issues such as sexual practice, sexual identity, and drug use in the family. Touches upon safer sex, male homosexuality and bisexuality, and does well representing several Spanish-language idioms. Allows for the development of an elaborate story encouraging honesty and cultural survival as well as self-criticism within the Latino community.
