With its spectacular cast and devastating original screenplay by Ron Cowen and Daniel Lipman (creators and producers of Showtime's Queer As Folk) this landmark documentary gay drama was nominated for 14 Emmys (and took home four) as it introduced TV audiences across the country to the reality of AIDS.
When gay lawyer Michael Pierson (Aidan Quinn - Legends of the Fall) is diagnosed with AIDS he copes with coming out to his family and colleagues, as they grapple with prejudices.
