Man of the Year

In his feature debut, director Dirk Shafer also writes this raucous mockumentary—a hybrid of fact and fabrication that re-creates his 1992 tenure as Playgirl magazine's Centerfold of the Year. When Shafer chooses to keep the fact that he's gay a secret from the magazine's editors, he finds himself living the ultimate lie, unable to give female readers what they really want. Will he succumb to his lover's pressures to come out of the closet?
