In Loving Brotherhood: Summer on the Road!
We’re traveling around the US this summer to finish our feature documentary.Through intimate interviews and rare archival footage, IN LOVING BROTHERHOOD explores the untold history of the gay motorcycle and leather club scene from the pre-Stonewall era to today, shining a light on the powerful legacy of a diverse community practicing community care, and self-acceptance in the face of relentless bigotry that’s resurging as we speak. This captivating documentary challenges stereotypes about leather, kink and fetish communities and explores the transformative impact of these chosen families on generations of LGBTQ+ individuals.
We are very close to finishing shooting, but need to hit the road this summer to interview leather elders far and near, and shoot with gay motorcycle and leather clubs in various regions of the South, Midwest, and Pacific Northwest. We will need to hire field crew, rent gear, transport crew and subjects, and hire an assistant editor to start building out our feature to get it ready for the full editing stage this fall.
Your support at any level, from $5 to $50,000 is vital to helping us preserve this important history during an incredibly tense political moment. All donations are tax-deductible, and many come with rewards like thank you credits in the finished film, posters, DVDs, tickets to private preview screenings and most prestigiously, producer credits at many different levels.
Help us complete this very important feature film before its too late to preserve this history.
