In 1981, AIDS had just emerged in New York, the cause could not be identified, and it was mainly spread among gay men. Ned, a fierce writer who started the Gay Health Crisis Group, met Felix, a reporter for the New York Times, and the two fell in love. In the struggle for funds and various struggles, more and more friends died of AIDS.
Tommy has a business card case. Whenever a friend dies, he pulls out his business cards and puts them in a drawer. Later, the cards in the drawer get thicker and thicker.
Ned's friend Albert died in the hospital when he came home to see his mother. The doctor was unwilling to examine the cause, and he refused to issue a death certificate. There was no way to spark, and he was thrown out by a nurse in a large garbage bag. Her boyfriend finally paid three thousand dollars to get his ashes.
Emma's research on AIDS has not been recognized by the government, has not been able to apply for funding, and the organization that provides the cooperation wants to terminate it.
Ned's brother has been supporting him behind the scenes, and actually does not recognize his homosexuality, thinking it is abnormal.
Felix also contracted AIDS. "He was afraid that I would leave him, and I told him that I would not leave. I never thought about leaving him even for a second, but he didn't believe me. It's been too long, it's really hard to believe this, but We must never lose faith in each other." They promised to spend the rest of their lives together on an island.
They were married in a hospital bed before they died. Felix made a will with Ned's brother, identifying the beneficiaries of the property, and a piece of land on the island.
You'll be fine, we'll have a dance together at the Yale Ball in two months. At the end of the film, Ned sits alone behind the dancing crowd wearing the coat Felix once wore. The lights are so warm, and his smile is the best interpretation of this relationship.
