The Woman I Have Become

by Alison Duke

The Woman I Have Become (2008) – This 60 min. documentary tells the stories of eight black women with incredible strength and character who are living with HiV/AIDS in Toronto Canada. The film offers insight into how many African and Caribbean women live with and experience HIV, the circumstances that challenge them and their copy strategies. The film was funded in part by the Trillium Foundation, Women’s Health In Women’s Hands (WHIWH), ACCHO, Blackcap and Voices of Positive Women. The film premiered on International Aids Day in 2007 at the Bloor Cinema, Toronto and the 2008 Worlds Aids Conference in Mexico City. The Woman I Have Become is free and now available in six different languages: French, Amharic, Arabic, Somali, Swahili and English). A discussion guide is also available for public and private screenings through WHIWH.
