Thabo, Thabiso and Moalosi are young, urban Basotho men on a mission. They travel with a mobile cinema unit through the mountains of Lesotho, screening their film to very remote communities. In a country where almost a third of the people are HIV+ they are the nucleus of a tiny group that are living openly with the virus. They are pioneers, they are also film stars, and are very attractive to women. How does one go about picking up girls if you have just publicly disclosed your HIV status? The three young men open up in a way seldom seen on screen. This film gets to the heart of their lives and dilemmas.
