Gloucester Guildhall
Dir Andrew Haigh.
(UK 2009. 75 mins)
Over six months Andrew Haigh worked with a group of London rent boys to create a semi-improvised drama based on their lives. Speaking their own words they are presented as they want to be seen. Sometimes explicit, sometimes awkward, this is a million miles from an idealised version of prostitution. The star is Greek Pete and we meet some of his clients as well as other rent boys. The lure of easy money is balanced with some alarming encounters and a keen sense of solidarity among the boys. They may gloss over some of the issues, but this is a privileged record of a sub-culture as never before seen on film.
