In BOHEMIAN SUMMER, world-renowned director William Higgins once again takes viewers on a timeless journey into the byways and backwoods of Eastern Europe where hunky men bond with each other in spontaneous moments of uninhibited passion, just as they have for thousands of years. Don't miss the debuts of Martin Novotny and Kristian Dubcek in a quartet of muscular farmhands who take time from chores to pleasure themselves in the straw-filled stable. Viktor Vesely is paired with Michal Piloun in his film debut. Rough-and-tumble garage mechanics are joined by a young stranger on holiday for a torrid ménage. Svens Torborg, bedridden with a broken arm, is comforted by two friends who give him a sponge bath and more. Lukas and Honza Vostry's swim off their sailboat soon turns sensual in the crystal clear water.
