Erotic fantasies about a prison romance inspired by Jean Genet; a mystifying documentary about a father-killing, flying boy; and a retro-horror where a scientist discovers an elixir of sexuality, which will dismantle his body and mind. This intertwined trilogy: Homo - Hero - Horror, passes through gay cultural history and cinema genres. Todd Haynes's feature debut, won the Jury Grand Prize at Sundance, Teddy Award for best queer film at the Berlinale, and was one of the defining films of the movement, which went down in cinema history ‘New Queer Cinema.’
