Movie Showing for World AIDS Day: House of Numbers

"This is the first film to present the uncensored POVs of virtually all the major players; in their own settings, in their own words. It rocks the foundation upon which all conventional wisdom regarding HIV/AIDS is based. House of Numbers could well be the opening volley in a battle to bring sanity and clarity to an epidemic gone awry." MEET THE FILMMAKERS: Brent Leung and David Snyder will be available after the screening for Q&A about the film. Take advantage of this rare opportunity to ask the directors your questions! Sponsored by the LGBT Office and Wellspring.
