- Summary:
- A mother and daughter are in crisis because of their different responses to AIDS. Pinki, infected by a blood transfusion, lets everyone know she is HIV positive, and counsels groups. Ntombi is battling to be just like everyone else. But her mother's courageous and touching refusal to be quiet or passive in the face of AIDS sets them both apart.
