Reporter Zero by Carrie Lozano (2006, 25 min.). The first documentary film to examine journalist Randy Shilts' (And the Band Played On) groundbreaking reporting on the AIDS epidemic, Carrie Lozano's Reporter Zero tells the dramatic story of Shilts' fight to contain a devastating epidemic and his determination to rattle a nation in denial. His story exemplifies the power of journalism, represents a critical moment in the history of gay rights, documents massive institutional failure, and reminds us that in spite of flaws and psychic struggles, one person can make a difference.

FREE. Tickets are required for free film screenings and are available at the Remis Box Office on the day of the event.
