Description Beirut is a classic love story told through the darkest of lenses. Set in dystopian New York City in which the AIDS virus has become epidemic, the city has been split into two sections; the negative and the positive. Though the HIV positive are quarantined they live in comparative freedom compared to the negative. Two young lovers, a positive and a negative, fight in this dark reality for what they want, what they need and what they think is right.
