How to Tell a Secret

A film that brandishes the documentry form and art to try to dismantle the stigma of being HIV positive that still persists in society. The film honours the past and the iconic Thom McGinty, the Diceman, who was one of the first to speak openly in Ireland about having AIDS but, other than that, it’s very firmly rooted in the here and now.

A form-flipping documentary, it features a cast of actors as well as ordinary people coming out on screen for the first time.
