Encounters

2012

Collection of four ground-breaking shorts in which gay men interact in a variety of circumstances: In 'Dream A40' (1965) a couple try to stop themselves from showing public displays of affection. In 'Vapors' (1965) two strangers meet in a New York bathhouse. In 'Come Dancing' (1970) an encounter between two men in a café takes a dark turn. Finally, in 'Encounter' (1971), a silent film with a score by Stephen Thrower, a group of men gather in the streets of New York to carry out a secret ritual.
