Showings and legacy

The film became an international sensation, playing for months at adult cinemas in the US and Europe. Until recently, no known intact 16mm negative or print existed. Then someone associated with the release of the original film contacted Peter with news that the original negative was in storage in Southern California. This negative has been used to create a brand new 16mm print and both the negative and print are on loan to the Legacy Project, a film preservation joint venture between Outfest and the UCLA Film and Television Archives. ==Awards==
