 Synopsis

The heart-wrenching story of Eve Van Grafhorst, who contracted HIV from a blood transfusion when she was born three months premature. 1980s’ attitudes to HIV saw Eve banned from her pre-school in Australia, leading her family to settle in NZ, where Eve became an extraordinary poster child for AIDS awareness. This international award-winning programme documents Eve’s medical struggles, her HIV AIDS awareness work, and her astonishing bravery in the face of illness and death. Eve died peacefully in her mother’s arms in 1993 at the age of 11.
