Corona Cork Film Festival - My Super 8 Season

The story of a friendship between two French activists in the early 1970s at the beginning of France’s gay rights movement. Marc is an attractive Parisian student who tries to organize other students to fight for gay rights; while his best friend, Julie, fights for working class issues before moving on to feminist and lesbian causes.

In the midst of his activism, Marc battles with his policeman father and tries to build a relationship with Andre, a young factory worker who says he’s not gay, but can’t seem to keep out of trouble at various cruising spots around Paris. Meanwhile, Julie rebounds from her separation from her boyfriend, Stephane, by moving into a ‘women only’ residence and hooking up with one of the other residents.
