The Fortune Teller - 50 years of gay in 5 minutes



The Fortune Teller is comprised of over 50 years of imagery and footage. The 5-minute clip took six months to film and assemble, and is made up of 100 carefully selected clips.

The Fortune Teller is a film by gay artist/activist Leo Herrera, chronicling milestones and icons of the modern gay man.

The story is told through the trance of The Fortune Teller (played by Stanley Frank) and created using archival and modern footage.

The film is a documentary, a time capsule, an homage to psychedelic films of the 1960′s and the modern art of the YouTube Montage film;  a kaleidoscopic five-minute journey through more than 50 years of gay history.
