Out of print Blu-ray of THE END OF CRUISING by New Queer Cinema filmmaker Todd Verow. “In the age of Grindr, Scruff, and other apps, who cruises anymore? THE END OF CRUISING is a stimulating anthology documentary that celebrates the pleasures gay men had finding places for anonymous sexual activity. 22 short films by Todd Verow and collaborators, Dave Hickey, Antony Hickling, Charles Lum, Billy Miller, Xavier Stentz and others (some of which prefer to remain anonymous) recount and reflect on the experience of having private sex in public — from furtive but knowing glances on the street to anonymous assignations in toilets, parks and gay beaches.”

Contains nudity and graphic sex.

Provenance: Produced, directed, photographed and edited by Todd Verow for his production company Bangor Films. Owned by Todd Verow.
