Watch Wild Boy (1995) Official Trailer

Philip, who lives in Zurich, is addicted to heroin and writing. He spends days and nights at his typewriter, confiding his innermost desires, hopes and fears to it.

The texts, written in the solitude of his old flat, accompany the images that Josy Meier and Stefan Jung have captured from this life. The isolation of the fixer, the writing junkie, the gay former hustler becomes palpable, comprehensible. In conversations, Philip opens up, talks about his longings, his longing for love, talks about his relationship with heroin, with Genet and with hustling.
