Paul Monette: The Brink of Summer's End
Monte Bramer & Lesli Klainberg, directors.
USA, 1996, 16mm, 90 min.

One of the greatest writers in America who proved that a writer can make a difference and a film can break your heat. A documentary about the acclaimed author of Borrowed Time: An AIDS Memoir and Becoming A Man: Half a Life Story, this award-winning portrait of the noted gay writer and activist was culled from interviews with Monette along with home movies, photographs and anecdotes from friends and family.

Bramer and Klainberg have created an inspirational document by casting a revealing eye on a writer who discovered his true voice in life and used it for personal exploration and political change.
