As part of a major retrospective at Pornfilmfestival 2015, we presented several films by the legendary gay porn label Hand in Hand in the presence of Lifetime Achievement Award winning producer Robert Alvarez. Four years later, we are presenting the documentary film “Good Hot Stuff” in an exclusive screening of a 16mm film copy from a private collection. In it, director Jack Deveau and several other creative minds of Hand in Hand provide a glimpse behind the scenes of gay porn production in the 1970s. In addition to impressions from the shooting of the porn classic “Left-Handed” and numerous film excerpts and interviews, “Good Hot Stuff” also features long-lost scenes from mythical, unfinished masterpieces of queer cinema.

As part of the screening, author and publisher Marco Siedelmann (Éditions Moustache) will present the new book “Good Hot Stuff. The Life and Times of Gay Film Pioneer Jack Deveau”.
