Description
In 1974, millions of Americans tuned into the 46th Academy Awards and watched in shock as an anonymous man streaked naked across the stage in the middle of the show. The prankster, Robert Opel, a man previously unknown to the public eye, rocketed to iconic status. Now, Opel's nephew, also named Robert, presents a documentary that illuminates the fascinating story of the gay San Francisco photographer and gallery owner who lived a life of political activism until his murder in 1979.
