(THE TIME THERE-AFTER)
Premiere Thursday, December 5th, 2013 at 21:00 at EYE, Amsterdam
The Time There-After is a triptych about life with hiv and aids in The Netherlands. This project shows how it was, how it is today, and what we wish and dream for in the future. This triptych tells a story that is important for all of us.
In the documentary The Time There-After we meet three men and two women who tell their life
stories. Together the five stories give a clear picture of how the impact of hiv differs from person to
person. A life with hiv cannot be generalized. Never. People are different, the date of infection differs
and we all have our own unique backgrounds. Being infected in the 80’s, like Erwin and Marjolein,
means you have to deal with more physical problems than those more recently infected like Celicia and
Pablo. For this reason we have focused on these 5 courageous people’s stories and not the virus.
The documentary The Time There-After is the final part of a trilogy. The exhibition, the book and
the documentary tell a story that starts with the first aids diagnosis on April 3, 1982 and
ends with those who were infected recently. The exhibition and book portray 30 men
and woman infected with hiv. Young and old, gay and straight, with different ethnic backgrounds and
from various parts of the country. Starting in 1983 we portray one person a year who was diagnosed
with hiv in that particular year.
The Time There-After shows the drama of the 80’s and the 90’s, the enormous progress we made,
life with hiv in 2013, and the dreams and tasks we have for tomorrow.
