Co-Presented by Frameline!
R!U!V! chronicles the rise and fall of homegrown gay porn studio Palm Drive Video, and explores how a devoted couple helped battle a devastating health crisis by promoting kinky sex.
Legendary leatherman Jack Fritscher met Mark Hemry in 1979 at Harvey Milk's birthday party- and the two fell head over heels in love. When the AIDS epidemic swept through San Francisco, the couple left the city to begin a new venture: turning a rural ranch in Sonoma County into a safe-sex porn studio that offered viewers new sexual possibilities in an age of plague. Casting rugged non- professional models to explore their unique erotic fantasies onscreen, the studio explored a wide array of queer kinks- and helped champion sex-positivity in the porn industry.
Directed by Ryan A. White & Alex Clausen. 2021. 79 min.
