Year Without Love, A

Directed by: Anahi Berneri

Pablo is a young writer stricken by AIDS and his fear of dying prompts him to write his personal diary. Seeking to ease his suffering—-not just the physical suffering, but also the emotional aspects of his malaise—-Pablo sets off in search of the love of his life. He places personal ads in magazines, cruises the gay scene of Buenos Aires, and falls in with some people who introduce him to sadomasochistic sexual practices and leather fetishism. By exploring the relationship between pain and desire, he finds a way to eroticize his pain and tame the monster lurking within him.
