Sidosa

2026 · 94 min

An intimate, earnest disclosure that feels like a quiet act of courage, mixing personal vulnerability with a public call to end stigma.

Lluís Galter, Màrius Sánchez
Genres
Documentary
Starring
Eduardo Casanova, Jordi Évole, Ana Belén
Overview
In 'Sidosa', the director and actor Eduardo Casanova makes the most intimate and significant revelation of his life: he has HIV. There is no precedent in Spain for a public figure to disclose that he is living with HIV — a step that organizations and activists have been calling for for years to help end the social stigma still associated with the virus.
