Music Is My Boyfriend

2022 · 49 min

The Hidden Cameras burst onto the music scene in the early 2000s boasting an irresistible combination of pop and queer sensibilities. Music Is My Boyfriend chronicles the early days of Joel Gibb’s mighty band as they gather steam in their native Toronto. Combining interviews with original members, behind-the-scenes session footage and rarely-seen 16mm film of two legendary live church shows, the film is both a mash note to a beloved band and a time capsule of the raucous, vivacious queer underground scene from which they emerged.
