Zero Patience

Overview

The spirit of "patient zero," believed to be the initial carrier of AIDS in North America, returns to reconnect with former companions. Concurrently, Sir Richard Burton, a Victorian explorer who has sipped from the Fountain of Youth, now serves as the Chief Taxidermist at the Toronto Natural History Museum. He is busy preparing an exhibit on the disease for the museum's "Hall of Contagion." As their paths intertwine, themes of memory, loss, and the quest for understanding unfold in this unique and thought-provoking narrative.
