Faggots

In 1977 a group of radical homosexual men living together in a flat in Stockholm collectively produced the short documentary “Bögjävlar” (Faggots). The film documents the men’s discussions about gay and male identity and intimacy, as well as activities such as demos, bathing and group therapeutic exercises. A rare example of moving images originating from within the Swedish gay liberation movement, “Bögjävlar” holds a unique place in the Swedish queer film history. The film is currently being rediscovered and explored in academic, artistic and journalistic work by queer activists fascinated with this document of 1970s gay culture in Stockholm.
