Director: Davies, Russell
Synopsis: "It burst onto British television in February, an explosion of graphic language, male nudity and explicit sex guaranteed to offend as many people as it enthralled. It was called Queer As Folk, and it set out to venture where British television had not gone before, chronicling the lives and loves of a trio of gay men from Manchester who were not role models, victims or martyrs." It exploded like a bombshell on British TV in early 1999, then swept across the Atlantic on a tidal wave of press clippings. It's become a household word in gay America, even though no television network in the U.S. has dared to air it, and perhaps, never will. Screened at last year's SFILGFF and now back for an encore presentation, QUEER AS FOLK stands the true test of cult video: With each viewing, it only gets better. Now, Frameline is proud to present the U.S. premiere of all eight episodes of this gayest soap opera of all time. Don’t miss a single one, but be warned. Once you sample this addictive brew of life, love, death, disco and attitude, you’ll be totally hooked. So catch it here, before it disappears forever.
