Nights in Black Leather

“For sheer eroticism and a beautiful star, it has no equal." - The Advocate
Eternal self-made gay sex symbol Peter Berlin makes his screen debut as a German immigrant who gets into all sorts of adventures on a trip to San Francisco in this classic from one-and-done filmmaker Ignatio Rutkowski.
The closest a gay adult film ever got to the style of Paul Morrissey and Andy Warhol, Nights in Black Leather is both a slyly comedic look at San Francisco’s gay scene and a tribute to the singular commanding presence of Peter Berlin.
