Magda Rakita / „Cosmo Was Murdered That Night”


Galeria Obok

„Cosmo Was Murdered That Night” is a short film based mainly on still photographs and an interview with a 70-year- old man about his sex life. Joey invites us to his world and explains the transformation from the moment of the rape more than 25 years ago, through life in celibacy to the recent rediscovery and reclamation of his own sexuality.
