Experimental clip shows men sleeping together in 1969. The footage is stylized with lots of extreme close-ups, red lighting, and odd music, as if the soundtrack had been written by the quirky Viennese composer Arnold Schoenberg.
The men are semi-nude, laying down, embracing, turning to get comfortable, touching, looking. There are lots of close-ups of faces, eyes, limbs, and clothing. In fact, there are so many close-ups that the clip is somewhat disorienting, even abstract.
