As the capitol of the most powerful nation on Earth, Washington, D.C., is a city dominated by wealth and political influence, but when you move past the Beltway and haunts dominated by the federal government and those who serve it, a very different town emerges. The significant majority of Washington, D.C.'s, permanent residents are African-American and Latino. A large number are gay, live in poverty, abuse drugs and have inadequate housing. Since the early 1980s, D.C. has also dealt with another crisis, AIDS—at least 3 percent of the city's population is HIV-positive, a staggering rate higher than parts of Africa, and some have estimated that as many as 7 percent may carry the virus.

Filmmaker Susan Koch explores the impact of the AIDS crisis in Washington, D.C., in the documentary “The Other City” and offers a penetrating glimpse into the city that tourists rarely see, as well as the people who are living with the disease, survivors dealing with their loss (some of whom are also HIV-positive) and those working to make a difference through education and needle exchange programs.  Behind all the stories of heartbreak, loss, and struggle there are also the incredible, encouraging stories of the people behind grassroots movements to extend education, combat stigmas, and spread hope.  This eye-opening and inspiring documentary tells the unseen and unheard stories behind the epidemic in our nation's capital. From a mother of three who has used her plight with government housing as motivation to campaign for reform, to a former drug addict now advocating for funding of needle exchange programs on Capitol Hill, to the self-described "privileged" young people volunteering at Joseph's House shelter_

“The Other City” was an official selection at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival.
