Details.
This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Chicken Hawk: Men Who Love Boys (also known as simply Chickenhawk) is a 1994 American documentary film produced, written and directed by Adi Sideman, who founded YouNow in 2011. The film profiles members of the pedophile/pederasty organization North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) who discuss sexual relationships between men and boys below the age of consent.
The film is an exposé of the group's controversial beliefs and its members' clandestine lifestyles. Sideman's evenhanded approach provides the audience with an insight into the group members' psyches. It has drawn attention for its unique approach: letting its subjects, the NAMBLA members, incriminate themselves in a public forum. Since its release, the film has been screened for the FBI, university criminology departments and other law enforcement agencies.
The term "chickenhawk" is used in gay slang to refer to an older man who chases after younger males.
