These C*cksucking Tears

POSTER — Dan Taberski’s These C*cksucking Tears, 2016 jury award winner at SXSW is a documentary short about Patrick Taggerty, who wrote, sang and released the first gay-themed country music album in 1973. But with only a thousand copies made, the album soon disappeared and became a gay urban myth. 40 years later, Lavender Country was rediscovered and lauded by critics as a ’resonant and wonderful…a rare act of bravery and honesty’. Made when I was an intern at Work-Order, New York.
