Malawi: Who's Afraid of HIV?, 25-minutes, 2008 (Ref: 491)
 
     
Nearly 25 million people in sub-Saharan Africa have the HIV virus. There are half a million AIDS orphans in Malawi alone - 1 in 6 primary school children. Doctors, nurses and teachers are dying faster than they can be replaced. 13-year-old Madalitso dreams of becoming a doctor but as one of the AIDS orphans this may be an impossible goal.

This is also available as part of a 4 x 25-minute series of films made for the BBC.
