Urinal

Directed by John Greyson

Dead gay artists scrutinize Toronto police's handling of washroom intimacy, discovering they are targets of surveillance in a political thriller.

This film is not currently available to watch online. It may be awaiting release or may no longer be available on any known streaming service.

John Greyson’s Urinal is experimental, political and proudly difficult to categorise. Mixing fictional investigation with ideas about surveillance, public sex and the policing of gay men, it often feels closer to an essay film than conventional drama. The intellectual playfulness can be distancing, but its anger and originality give it lasting importance.
