"Always, Michael" is a short film by Bent & Magi Myggen in partnership with Andrea Cagan about their mutual friend, Michael Katz.

Michael was a stage writer/producer who contracted AIDS
and wrote and directed the stage production "AIDS/Us" (opening scene), in which the entire cast told their story about getting AIDS during the '80s in Los Angeles.
All the actors later died from the disease.

Michael also wrote and directed "Taking Care", a play for, and with teenagers.
In the process of dying Michael discovered more about the life
than many learn in a full lifetime.

Participants in the video are frends and family.
Original music by Bent and Magi Myggen.
