Tom of Finland is one of the major icons of the gay world. His provocative erotic drawings have had an enormous influence on gay identity, attitude and self-understanding. This ground-breaking work combines interviews with Tom (prior to his death in 1992) and his leather men acolytes with hundreds of his original drawings and steamy fantasy scenes inspired by his work. We will be conducting a panel discussion post film moderated by Ulysses Thomas, Mr. New England Leather 2022 and joined by Michael Joseph, Hunter O’Hanian, and Cain Berlinger.
