The Ryan White Story (1989)
In dit waargebeurde verhaal dat zich afspeelt halverwege de jaren tachtig lijdt de 13-jarige Ryan White (Lukas Haas) aan hemofilie en raakt door zijn behandeling besmet met aids. In de jaren tachtig was er nog maar weinig bekent over aids en Ryan wordt op school dan ook behoorlijk gepest en gediscrimineerd. Zelfs de school probeert zijn ouders er van te overtuigen dat hij maar beter niet meer naar school kan komen.
