Book synopsis

A rejection of reductive labels and essentialist sexual identities, bisexuality has become a new frontier of sexual freedom, particularly for males, for whom it often represents transcendence of rigid patriarchal roles. Since 1990, there has been an explosion of international films about male bisexuality. This book addresses over a dozen films and filmmakers in an attempt to address the complexities of portraying male bisexuality on screen. Topics covered include bisexuality as an adaptation to harsh socioeconomic structures, a liberation from traditional relationship structures, and a continuation of the youth rebellion of the 1960's. In all of these films, male bisexuality is treated both as an actual practice and as a metaphor to be explored in myriad ways.)
