This powerful documentary candidly peers into the life of visionary author and playwright Larry Kramer, the political firebrand whose decades of tireless activism forever changed LGBTQ rights and the AIDS movement forever. Larry Kramer in Love and Anger is highlighted by unprecedented interview access to Kramer, the cofounder of the Gay Men’s Health Crisis and ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power.) The documentary follows Kramer as he battles complications from a liver transplant and a decade of living with HIV, painting a vivid picture of a fascinating, important, and often controversial man who gave voice to the outrage and grief that inspired a generation of gay men and women to fight for their lives.
