Buddies
David, a naive graduate student, has volunteered to work as a 'buddy' for people dying of AIDS. Assigned to the intensely political Robert, a lifelong activist whose friends and family have abandoned him following his diagnosis, the two men, each with notably different world views, soon discover common bonds, as David's inner activist awakens and Robert's need for emotional release is fulfilled.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Buddies' is a serious drama focusing on themes of activism, acceptance, and mortality related to the AIDS crisis in the 1980s. There is no indication in the provided plot summary or genre that Christmas plays any significant role in the setting, plot, or themes."
