a poetic dialogue between the filmmaker and Dean, a young man living in Hong Kong. In reflecting on his experience living with a congenital disability and HIV during the first years of the COVID pandemic, Dean expresses his sense of self in the face of regular medical challenges.

Commissioned in 2023 as part of EVERYONE I KNOW IS SICK, a program of five videos generating connections between HIV and other forms of illness and disability.
