It Is Not The Homosexual Who Is Perverse,
But the Society In Which He Lives (1971)
“A harsh but deeply sympathetic sociological essay film about gay life in Berlin in a time of secrecy and oppression, with no diegetic sound and constant narration, following Daniel's unsatisfying immersion into gay society.”

God have mercy, what a sobering visit to the past. How did the production company manage to make all the characters look like mannequins? Aside from that, I will only say that I give thanks to God that my coming-out was with a Christian organization! (You need not be offended if you are atheist; that is my belief system, not yours.)
