Joseph's Touch (1989)

In the sensual erotic piece, Robakowski revisits three experiences of homosexuality he encountered as a child, a teenager, and an adult. In an interview, he recalled the homosexual games he witnessed and participated in at an orphanage. He illustrated episodes of his intimate story with images from the lives of a gay couple he met in Montreal. Warm, soothing shots of the two men contrast with the artist's words, delivered in a blunt, intimidating voice.
