One of those documentaries that suck you in (no pun intended). George O'Donnell's film is a frank look at a group of young men running a pornographic website known as "College Boys Live." While seemingly salacious, the film is actually a poignant drama that explores the motivations and stuggles behind the business of running a voyeuristic website.
In a quiet Orlando, Florida, suburb three young men struggle to escape the wreckage of their pasts and create new lives for themselves. Their new home is CollegeBoysLive.com, a voyeur webcam house rigged with 32 cameras, where their every move is watched by thousands of paying members. The site’s creator claims CollegeBoysLive.com is simply about showing that “it’s okay to be gay.” But the neighbors insist it’s a pornographic whorehouse and sue to have them evicted. This intimate and provocative documentary examines a complex subculture, but at its heart is the universal search for family and acceptance. (Description courtesy of filmmaker.)
