Stefan Braun

Documentarian Itamar Alcalay opens a door to Tel Aviv's hidden gay culture of the '60s and '70s with the story of Stefan Braun, a celebrated socialite whose upscale fur shop catered to the chic and wealthy from around the world. When Braun died in the early '90s, his closeted life went public. He left nearly everything to his lover and life-partner of 39 years, Eliezer Rath, prompting Braun's family to fight the will in court. Old home movies, diaries and interviews recall Braun's private life, his circle of friends and his swinging parties.
