"Hawa Chelangat is a 37-year-old prostitute in Kenya who supports her five children through commercial sex. Frank Plummer is a Canadian scientist studying AIDS. This video tells the story of this remarkable scientific quest to find a prevention rather than a cure : a difficult struggle in a world where vaccine research gets only 1% of AIDS funding. It is also the human story of an unlikely partnership between a Canadian doctor and a Kenyan prostitute."@en
