Description

Gloria was diagnosed with HIV when she was 13. She is now 18 and trying to live a normal life. However, being HIV positive in a country like Nigeria is an uphill struggle.

This film, HIV Stigma in Nigeria, looks at the problems that HIV positive people face in order to live like any other person and how they are speaking out against stigma to try and overcome it.
