 In 1952 an
Army sergeant was cornered and courted by his commanding
officer. Their romance grew and then grew too obvious. Rumors became
anonymous tips to headquarters. They avoided court-martial by
confronting the troops in their unit. That pivotal moment cemented Bob
and Jack together for the rest of their lives. Fifty-two years later
they share how they've remained a couple: how they left wives and
children, moved to a small town in the Pacific Northwest and started a
radio station, and today how they battle it out in their eighties. Bob
& Jack's 52-Year Adventure is the true self-told story about
the
kind of lifelong love we all hope for and the equal rights two men who
are still in love will now need to survive.

THE SEVEN SECRETS TO
PERFECT PORN
North Carolina Premiere!
(UK, NR, 32 min, 2005)
 In
2001 the law in the UK for gay porn changed forever. Up until then,
the only porn gay men in the UK could enjoy would be illegal, bad
quality material mainly from Europe and America. Even up until 2003,
certain sexual acts were still illegal in gay porn, while their
straight counterpart movies enjoyed greater freedom in sexual
expression. Now that has all changed; films can be produced and sold
freely in the UK; and a new industry is starting to emerge. The Seven
Secrets to Perfect Porn follows the work of Max Lincoln, who took the
opportunity to start his own movie company, Eurocreme, in the UK to
make porn to challenge the American and European dominance of hardcore
films.
