Greetings from Fire Island (2013)

En la época de mayor virulencia del SIDA, a principios de los años ochenta, se ignoraba casi todo sobre una enfermedad que se calificó como "el cáncer gay". El film cuenta cómo la sociedad estadounidense fue asimilando la expansión de la gran epidemia.

Un grupo de ocho amigos gays, la mayoría pertenecientes al mundo del espectáculo, lleva una vida tranquila en las playas de California. En julio de 1981, por primera vez, un artículo en el New York Times habla de una nueva forma de cáncer que afecta principalmente a los homosexuales. El sida comienza su larga y terrible obra destructiva. Un filme acerca de la plaga de los 80, el sida, desde una perspectiva que evita tanto el exceso de ternura como el morbo. Destaca el estupendo trabajo interpretativo de un elenco de actores encabezado por Bruce Davison ("X-Men"), que fue candidato al Óscar al mejor secundario.

When a young gay lawyer arrives on Fire Island to explore his sexuality, he becomes witness to a murder after being drugged. A stranger helps him to safety, but he soon discovers his saviour is friends with the killer.

A chronicle of gay culture in New York during the post-Stonewall, pre-AIDs era. Thirteen men and one woman look back at gay life and sex in Manhattan and Fire Island - from Stonewall (June, 1969) to the first reporting on AIDS (June, 1981). They describe the rapid move from repression to celebration, from the removal of shame to joy, the on-going search for "someone," the freedom before AIDS, the friendships, and brotherhood.

A high-octane satirical look at gay men as seen from a very unique POV. Dirty Baby washed up on the shore of the Fire Island Pines and what she witnesses defies description.

From the first Native Americans until the late nineteenth century, uncertainty and transience dominated the behavior of visitors to the Great South Bay. Over the last century, this beach "community" has evolved into a varied and complex mix of people and ideas that interact with each other and the natural beach environment. Spanning 150 years of Fire Island history, this documentary tells the story of this unique Island only forty miles from New York City. From shipwrecks to gay parades, Fire Island has been a hideaway for generations of people.
