Las primeras obras culturales que trataron el tema del sida en su intento de alertar a la opinión pública fueron realizadas principalmente por los propios afectados o los que la sufrieron al tener amigos, familiares y parejas infectados. Los movimientos artísticos alternativos de principios de la década de los años ochenta que se prolongaron hasta los noventa fueron claves para crear concienciación social y hacer que un tema “olvidado” en la agenda ministerial de Reagan fuera tomado en consideración. Estos movimientos alternativos encabezados por asociaciones artísticas como ACT UP o The Gran Fury fueron mucho más transgresores que las creaciones cinematográficas. Los menores costes de producción y la posibilidad de dar a conocer sus propuestas fuera de las grandes pantallas les posibilitó llevar a cabo acciones que no podían permitirse los directores de cine, más preocupados en el gran público y más temerosos de perder audiencia.
The first cultural works dealing with AIDS in an attempt to inform the public opinion, were made by those who were affected by the illness and by those who had friends, family or their partner infected. The alternative artistic movements from the beginning of the 80´s till the end of the 90´s were essential to create social consciousness and to promote this “left-aside topic” in Reagan´s political agenda. These alternative movements headed by artistic associations such as ACT UP or The Gran Fury were much more transgressive than large-scale film productions. Limited production costs and the opportunity to disseminate their work through other channels than the big screen allowed such alternative movements to take actions that film directors could not afford, being more focused on the mass market and more concerned by losing audience.
