OUT on DVD/VOD: Lord Montagu

Delving deep into both the controversial and glamorous life of the infamous aristocrat, director Luke Korem takes audiences on an historic journey in his directorial debut, Lord Montagu, available on VOD on Wednesday, June 17.

 As the youngest member in parliament and sole heir to his family's 7,000-acre English estate, Lord Edward Montagu's life was rich and privileged. However, in 1954, Edward Montagu, then aged 25, became England's most infamous aristocrat when he was arrested for homosexual offenses and became the focus of a landmark trial known as “The Montagu Case.” His guilty verdict sent off shock waves and became the catalyst to overturn a centuries old law, but Montagu’s once pristine reputation and career were all but ruined. After serving a year in prison, Montagu rose back into the spotlight when he boldly transformed his private estate and family home into a public tourist attraction. He created spectacles at his home, most notably Britain's first motor museum, and thus invented a new form of tourism known as “the stately home business.” His showmanship and success inspired a new breed of aristocrats to open their doors and transformed Edward Montagu into a prominent and esteemed national figure.

OUT on DVD/VOD: All Yours (Je Suis a Toi)

Breaking Glass Pictures will release the French LGBT comedy All Yours (Je Suis a Toi) on DVD and VOD May 26, 2015. From the director of Beyond the Walls, David Lambert, All Yours stars Nahuel Perez Biscayart (Grand Central), Jean-Michel Balthazar (L'enfant, Le gamin au velo), and Monia Chokri (Xavier Dolan's Laurence Anyways).

Lucas is a penniless young Argentine male escort who is struggling to survive in Buenos Aires. After meeting a lonely Belgian baker online, Lucas agrees to become his apprentice. He soon finds himself caught in a love triangle with the baker and his female employee.

"My second feature is a continuation of explorations of intimacy, love and
all its torments. This isn't so much a film about sexual prostitution - as it is about all kinds of prostitution. It charts the encounter between economic misery on one side and emotional misery on another (...) Beyond the specific world in which the events take place, our story is a universal one, touching us all - and I trust that it will, in its own way, touch you too..." says director David Lambert.

OUT on DVD/VOD: Folsom Forever

Breaking Glass will be releasing Folsom Forever on DVD and VOD June 9, 2015. Folsom Forever is the story of how a kinky rebellious street festival captured the heart of San Francisco. This new documentary by Mike Skiff (Kink Crusaders) bares the social, political, charitable and cultural implications of the world's most notorious bacchanal.

In 1984, a scrappy little neighborhood in San Francisco - home to many low-income tenants and the heart of the gay male leather scene - faced destruction from the bulldozers of redevelopment and the AIDS crisis. The Folsom Street Fair was started to call attention to gentrification and raise money for AIDS charities. Folsom Forever tells the story of how this small street fair grew into the biggest outdoor kink and fetish event in the world, and managed to do a lot of good along the way.
