This overwhelming film – which won an award at Cannes – pays tribute to the French AIDS activists who furiously cried out for attention in the early 1990s.

Robin Campillo invites you to fight, talk, laugh, cry, dance, and die, and then continue the struggle with young people who lived for two. We discover the Act Up collective in their animated internal debates and we experience how individuals within that collective see death come thundering towards them. 120 battements par minute will make your heart pound.

> 120 battements par minute. FR, dir.: Robin Campillo, act.: Nahuel Pérez Biscayart, Arnaud Valois, Adèle Haenel
