The story follows three gay men named Peter. Cort writes a book on male circumcision, Koosens, obsessed with Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, transcribes it, drawing police attention. The third Peter, Denham, betrays the other two.
Uncut is another typically playful John Greyson experiment, mixing gay identity, censorship and Canadian history with deliberately artificial storytelling. Its intellectual games can make it feel distant, but the film is witty, inventive and clearly interested in challenging the way sexuality is packaged and policed.
