AIDS

THE BROADCAST TAPES OF DR. PETER

Synopsis:  In 1990, Dr. Peter Jepson-Young learned he had AIDS.  Believing that “there’s no logical end point to education,” he began taping a series of two-minute “video diaries” that documented the continuing fullness of his life and offered insights from the perspective of both patient and doctor into what is was like to have AIDS.  Aired weekly in Canada, this unique series captured the country’s imagination and won widespread affection for the man known as “Dr. Peter.”

THE BROADCAST TAPES OF DR. PETER condenses the 111 video episodes into “a single program of stunning purity.”  Without sentimentalizing or dramatizing his experiences, the film presents an honest and immensely moving record that not only gives AIDS a human face, but profoundly demonstrates the strength of the human spirit.
