The first man is young, domestic and likable, the second rich exciting and arrogant and the third older, exuberant and vulnerable. (The late clown and mime artist Richard Pochinko plays the third man in his only film role.) The classic dating scenarios, differently imagined, are repeated with each of the men: the dinner, the dance, the gift, the bath, the bed. A hybrid of the documentary and drama form, layering techniques are used to weave a web of associations and create a dynamic and fast-moving flow of images and events. The film was originally shot in 16mm in 1989 but has been re-released in digital format in 2017.
