Please Hold is an experimental DIY documentary created by Alexandra Juhasz.
What does it mean to hold the legacy of beloveds on changing formats? How do mourning and memory change across time and tech? Whatever could it mean that twice in my life (in my late 20s and then in my late 50s), two friends (so different from each other) asked me to tape them—as AIDS activists and collaborators—as they were nearing death?
