In the early 90s, in a Cuba shadowed by the collapse of the Soviet Union and the consequential dire scarcity, a remarkable counterculture emerged: Los Frikis. These youths, enamored with punk rock and burdened by repression, made an unthinkable choice—to intentionally inject themselves with HIV.
Their story, paradoxically both heart-wrenching and inspiring, has recently been captured in the film "Los Frikis," featuring Adria Arjona, and the Cuban actors Héctor Medina and Eros de la Puente.
