Synopsis

Yvonne Dent is a woman living with HIV. Shame is the reason she only discloses her status to best friend, Ming, who also contracted the virus, causing them to have a strong bond. While battling with love, trust, friendships, and acceptance, she copes with the virus by staying at home; leaving her social and career life limited. While living with HIV since her early twenties, she hasn’t been in a relationship. The virus is affecting Yvonne in ways that’s altering her life. Soon a man, Thomas, that Yvonne feels connected to, invites her for coffee. After receiving the invitation, she feels obligated to tell him about her positive status. Once he is told, he leaves her in limbo about his choice of whether to continue seeing her with obstacles threatening his decision.
