Non, je ne regrette rien

Through music, poetry, and courageous self-disclosure, five HIV-positive gay Black men (among them poet and performance artist Assotto Saint) discuss their individual confrontations with AIDS, illuminating their journeys through the fear, shame, and stigma that accompanied the disease at the height of the epidemic toward healing, acceptance, and truth. In Non, je ne regrette rien (No Regret), director Marlon Riggs tells stories of self-transformation in which a once unmentionable "affliction" is forged into a tool of personal and communal empowerment.
