Description

Over five million people in India have the HIV virus. The spread is diverse, with little over a quarter of the states accounting for more than 90% of cases. The epidemic is cloaked in secrecy and shame.

This has forced 11-year-old Vinod-kumar to hide the condition that would see his family ostracized and his sisters considered unmarriable.

This is also available as part of a 7 x 22-minute series of films made for the BBC.
