Daddy & Papa is a 2002 documentary film made by Johnny Symons. It explores same-sex parenting as seen in the lives of four families headed by male couples. The film also examines the legal, social, and political challenges faced by gay parents and their children.


Filmmaker Symons and his partner William Rogers, along with their adopted son, Zachary, were one of the four families featured in the film. Symons says of the project, I wanted to document this phenomenon: what it means for out gay men to form their own families - for the dads, for the kids, for their extended families and schools and communities and the thousands of mainstream people who are being changed by their exposure to a new kind of family.
Daddy & Papa was shown nationwide in the U.S. on PBS in the spring of 2003 as part of its Independent Lens series. The film was scheduled for rebroadcast on the LOGO channel in August 2007.

Wilkinson had a life partner, Fannie. But her family lawyer was taking her money, and her artwork almost became lost when she was committed to an insane asylum, where she spent the last thirty years of her life. After she was sent to the institution, her artwork as well as all her other things were put in trunks and shipped to a relative in West Virginia, where they were kept in an attic for forty years.

The film opens with a rapid montage of visuals that transport people back to the 1970s in and around Greenwich Village. Driving disco music of the time sets the pace. Using intimate interviews it begins to develop the story of gay sex in the 70′s through characters such as Larry Kramer, Scott Bromley, Barton Benes, Rodger McFarlane, and others. These characters begin to expand the elements that were visually introduced. They talk about the public sex: the streets, the piers, and the trucks.

À Reims, en septembre 2002, François Chenu, 29 ans, est battu à mort dans un parc. Les trois Boneheads, reconnus coupables devant la cour d'assises, ont agi par homophobie après avoir voulu, selon leur expression, « casser de l'arabe ». La famille de François se livre, dans un douloureux processus de deuil, en rejetant résolument la haine. Ce n'est pas un film sur l'homophobie d'abord, c'est aussi un film sur le deuil et le pardon, l'impossibilité de pardonner.

La Révolution du désir ! est une exploration de la nébuleuse qui a donné vie aux mouvements de libération sexuelle en France (le FHAR, le MLF, etc.) et une interrogation sur le passage de la révolte à la normalisation des homosexuels. Au travers des actions de commandos délirants et d'essais aux titres évocateurs (Rapport contre la normalité ou Trois milliards de pervers), s'esquissent les portraits de Guy Hocquenghem et de Françoise d'Eaubonne, intellectuels étonnants et partisans inconditionnels de la révolution du désir.

Des hommes et des femmes, nés dans l'entre-deux-guerres, ils n'ont aucun point commun sinon d'être homosexuels et d'avoir choisi de le vivre au grand jour, à une époque où la société rejetait l'homosexualité. Ils ont aimé, désiré, lutté, pour se faire reconnaître. Aujourd'hui, ils racontent ce que fut cette vie insoumise, partagée entre la volonté de rester des gens comme les autres et l'obligation de s'inventer une liberté pour s'épanouir.
