Tim Leyendekker / NL, 2021 / 84 min.
In 2005, three gay men organised sex parties during which drugged victims were injected with HIV contaminated blood. The perpetrators were sentenced to years in prison in 2008. Those are the facts. For filmmaker Tim Leyendekker they constituted the point of departure for a film that plays a complex game with reality and fiction.
In the 21st century it is no longer remarkable if films break genre. Feature films disguised as documentaries, true stories are animated. Director Tim Leyendekker takes it one step further. There was more to the story of contaminated HIV blood being administered to drugged gay men in Groningen than came out during the court case at the time according to Leyendekkker and co-scriptwriter Gerardjan Rijnders.
