Premiering at the Sundance Film Festival this week, Interior. Leather Bar. is a beta-documentary/film imagining the rumoured 'lost 40-minutes' from 1980 thriller Cruising by William Friedkin. It was said that to make the final cut a non X-rated film, content had to cut and destroyed; many believing it was 40 minutes of gay S&M.
Inspired by this controversy, James Franco and Travis Mathews have collaborated to create something that is said to "blur the boundaries between the observer and observed, truth and fiction, pain and delight."
