A raw history, often cluttered and sometimes repetitive but, when strategies fail along with immune systems, deeply affecting.
Presents a valuable template for how grassroots activism can temper societal prejudice and challenge governmental indifference in the face of a mysterious and remorseless killer.
[A] powerful, messy and tremendously moving documentary ...
"How to Survive a Plague" captures a saddening, maddening era that seems like far too many lifetimes ago.

Plague isn't the history of a disease so much as the history of a movement, and a portrait of those who refused to suffer passively.
Compelling, important and inspiring documentary about the fight against AIDS.
Beautifully inspiring and, obviously, also a great cautionary tale.
A riveting look at LGBT protesters during the AIDS crisis - and an object lesson that if the revolution is going to be televised, it's good to have the revolutionaries holding the cameras.
This is a moving documentary, as hopeful as it is tragic.
A serious, moving and sometimes astonishingly well-organized documentary about the history of AIDS activism.
The title doesn't necessarily convey this, but "How to Survive a Plague" is an inspiring and hopeful documentary.
[An] unflinching look at the activists' mistakes and acheivements, their regrets, their very solemn pride at a victory attained at so high a cost.

At once a fascinating history and a compelling call to action.
This amazingly well-done, admirably dry-eyed documentary about a true human victory over what was once a universal death sentence might well be the year's finest.
... compelling as a recent historical document, but also has contemporary resonance in its depiction of the influence of activism on social causes.
