South African debuts AIDS film on World AIDS Day (AP)

JOHANNESBURG ? A new movie being released in South Africa is using animation to show viewers how people become infected with HIV and spread the virus.

The cast and characters are Kenyan, Nigerian and South African ? which producers hope will help the film travel across the continent hardest hit by the disease.

The movie, called "Inside Story: The Science of HIV/AIDS," is premiering Thursday, which is World AIDS Day.

The film will make its U.S. debut in January in Washington and then in Nigeria later next year.

It took five years and $2 million ? raised from the U.S. and South African governments, the U.N. AIDS agency and other donors ? to put together the movie.
