The GO DOC Project by Cory Krueckeberg

A recent college grad devises to shoot a doc about the NYC nightlife scene in order to meet the go-go guy he’s cyber-obsessed with.

Director: Cory Krueckeberg

Writer: Tom Gustafson & Cory Krueckeberg

Stars: Tanner Cohen and Matthew Camp

Genres: Documentary | Comedy | Drama

Storyline: THE GO DOC PROJECT is a feature film - conceived as a hybrid of documentary & narrative forms - charting the evolution of a relationship between two young men. The nearly no budget approach - minimal equipment & a crew of two - has given them the ultimate freedom as they explore every aspect of the story & the relationship between the young men as it develops in front of us.

For three weeks in September and October 2012, they followed the guys all over New York City with a camera - into cafes & bars, onto rooftops & dance floors & ultimately into their living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms & bedrooms. The excitement of not knowing exactly what they would end up with was what it's all about.

SPEAKproductions (Tom Gustafson & Cory Krueckeberg) has produced 5 films. Their work has screened in 200 film festivals around the world and won more than 30 awards. Stephen Holden of the New York Times chose WERE the WORLD MINE as “Critics’ Pick” calling it “Movie Musical Magic.” WTWM went on to play 175 film festivals (winning 25 awards) and opened theatrically in 30 American cities becoming a cult gay indie hit. It was distributed online for VOD by Warner Brothers as well as by Netflix and Hulu, for DVD by Wolfe Video, for television by LOGO and the soundtrack was released on PS Classics. Around the world, 15 additional territories have acquired it for distribution. MARIACHI GRINGO recently premiered as the Opening Night film at the Miami Film Festival and also won the top prize at Latin America’s premiere film festival in Guadalajara. It stars Shawn Ashmore (X-MEN), Grammy Winner Lila Downs, Mexican movie star Martha Higareda and Oscar Nominee Adriana Barraza.

I have to confess, while waiting to see this movie, I wasn't exactly sure this was my cup of tea. Sure, I backed this project to have the chance to see the preview, and I did so since I was an early admirer of WERE the WORLD MINE, so I trusted this team, but well, I had this wrong assumption the movie was, well, boring.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, the movie is everything other than boring: it's romantic, sexy, sweet, sexy, cute, sexy... did I say sexy? Well, if I seem obsessed, maybe you should be in my shoes, relaxed at home, with my laptop on the knees, ready to see this "documentary" about a go-go dancer, and suddenly there were two uber-cute boys making love on the screen. And I'm not talking only about the sex scene, that is awesome, I'm more than anything talking about all the kisses they exchanged, all the heart and soul, all the sweetness floating around.

Sure, maybe this movie has not the ordinary, and sometime boring, happily ever after, even if, like the stubborn romantic at heart that I'm, I want to think this is not the end for those two boys.

So yes, as soon as this movie will be available, on festivals, on Netflix, on Amazon, whatever and wherever, go and see it, trust me, you will fall in love for them, and all over again for Tanner Cohen!

The trailer looked really good. I'd be willing to take a chance and buy it, especially because you liked it too.
