Trama
In 'Angels in America', set amidst the AIDS crisis and socio-political changes of 1985 New York City, six interconnected lives are explored. Prior Walter (Justin Kirk), a gay man, learns he has AIDS and his lover Louis (Ben Shenkman) leaves him due to fear and guilt. Meanwhile, Joe Pitt (Patrick Wilson), a Mormon Republican attorney, struggles with his sexuality while being pushed towards a government job by right-wing fixer Roy Cohn (Al Pacino). Pitt's wife Harper (Mary-Louise Parker) is struggling with her sexless marriage and prescription drug addiction. Prior's illness progresses, but he finds solace in Belize (Jeffrey Wright), an ex-drag queen nurse, and his mother. An angel visits Prior, offering him a chance at prophecy upon his death. As the characters grapple with their realities, they find themselves interconnected through unexpected paths.

The story explores themes of love, loss, identity, and societal changes through its diverse cast of characters. It stands as a powerful testament to the AIDS crisis and the socio-political climate of 1980s America.
