The Unabridged Mrs. Vera’s Daybook tells a story of historic activism and community art through the works of two San Francisco artists and long-term AIDS survivors. During one of the darkest periods in US history, two men decide to bring joy and color to a broken community for which an entire movement has emerged. Supporters, fellow activists and members of the queer art community join the film to help paint this vivid portrait of perseverance, compassion and outrageous dime-store fashion.

David Faulk and Michael Johnstone were diagnosed with AIDS in the 1980s. After meeting in 1994 the two men found a way to channel their uncertainty into an artistic exploration in outrageous costumery. Flash forward to today where the couple's unique vision has transformed into a city-wide phenomenon. Verasphere captures a vibrant and colorful queer community in San Francisco that continues to build on an elaborate and unifying project.
