Soft Murders

Synopsis:
Gilbert and George - exploiters of 'Working Class' young men pictured naked for the rich Gay male gaze? Or revitalizing art? andy Warhol - cynical manipulator of drug dependent and sexualized bodies for money? Or an artist who made a new way of seeing? Francis Bacon - sado-masochistically yearning for the violent death of himself or his gangster lover? Or genuinely torn between art and Love? Found Reality returns with its mix of Disabled and non-Disabled performers in a controversial exploration in physical performance of the relationships between Gay Male artists and their models.
