Sixty Nine Club

Now only a small handful of members, the Sixty Nine Club is Europe’s oldest social group for gay leathermen, founded in 1965 when homosexuality was illegal in Britain. Today the club’s last surviving older men show us why the Sixty Nine Club means so much to them through home movies and tales of debauchery, love and friendship.

Director Statement

This is a 21-min distilled version of what will be a 60-min documentary with a broader scope of the history of leather and the Sixty Nine Club. Many shots and scenes in this version will not be in the longer, so they will be essentially two different films.
