Zero Patience is a Canadian film directed by John Greyson and released in 1993.
The major notable feature of this film is that it refutes the urban legend of the alleged introduction of AIDS to North America by a single individual, Patient Zero. In this sense, it is a response to Randy Shilts's book And The Band Played On, which played a principal role in the spreading of this misconception (although it should be noted that Shilts did not claim that Dugas was the first to bring the virus to North America).
