BEHIND THE FEAR uncovers the hidden controversy about HIV that the United States government doesn’t want you to know exists. Enticed by the promise of money and prestige, and influenced by powerful political pressures, otherwise reputable scientists have suppressed critical flaws in the view that a deadly virus causes AIDS. This film uncovers the hidden stories of those who have questioned the mystique of HIV.
