Written by I’m almost certain that 2012 is a record year for theatrical releases of New Zealand documentaries. Following on from 10 documentary features screen in the NZ International Film Festival, now August also brings the premiere of Men Like Us, a feature documentary that looks at gay life in New Zealand, directed by Christopher Banks and supported by the Mental Health Foundation.
A revealing documentary window into the lives of nine New Zealand gay men aged 24 through 78, ‘Men Like Us’ highlights the common threads in our continuing struggle for everyday happiness in a straight man’s world.
Tickets for the premiere on August 15 at Rialto Cinemas, Newmarket can be purchased HERE.
