Alfonso Cuarón's Love in the Time of Hysteria

See Oscar-winning director Alfonso Cuarón's (ROMA) first feature, a dark screwball comedy about love and sex at the height of the AIDS crisis. 💛

The film follows Casanova Tomás Tomás who is falsely diagnosed with AIDS by a wrathful lover when he falls in love with a woman equally suicidal as he.

LOVE IN THE TIME OF HYSTERIA was originally denied a release by the government, but went on to great worldwide festival success and became a hit at home when it was finally granted a domestic release and premiered at TIFF in 1991. ⭐

See it Mar 29 in 35mm
