Made in 1989, they are lost to vision altogether serves as erotic retaliation to the Helms Amendment, the U.S. government’s refusal to fund explicit AIDS prevention information for gay men, lesbians, and IV drug users. Kalin paints a portrait of the national fear and hysteria that has usurped compassion and care for people with AIDS. With Kalin’s usual visual finesse, this tape eloquently conveys the need for a sane and human response to the crisis that retains passion and sexuality. "
