SlangBang

In gay male slang, "bears" and "cubs" refer to body shapes and age groups; a "bear" usually refers to a hairy plus size man whilst a "cub" is a younger bear. An "otter" is a slimmer hairy man whilst a ‘wolf’ is an older "daddy." A kaleidoscope of gay male bodies, Busby Berkeley-style, SLANGBANG explores the idea of being codified by a set of ocular-centric taxonomic principles that are meant to determine who you are as a person and how you function in a relationship. It reflects on the kinds of role gay men are expected to conform to, where identity becomes something detached or external and how you can fit into that.

»I’d prefer to be the film myself than just the director«: with Klaus Lemke, the boundaries between life and screen are fluid.
