This documentary is about a very strange event, which occurred in New York in 1972, so odd in fact that it only took three years to make into film history, with the film Dog Day Afternoon with Al Pacino in the lead role. In real life, the protagonist was a man named John Wojtowicz, unclassifiable character with quite an uninhibited intimate life. In a rapture of love (or craziness?), he decides to rob a bank one day in order to pay for the sex change operation of his partner. The live broadcast of the events and negotiations with Wojtowicz led to an amazing media circus that the robber used to get famous. In this film, shot over 10 years until the death of the main character, John Wojtowicz sits with filmmakers Allison Berg and Frank Keraudren to talk about his life, the events that led to this bizarre theft and about New York during the early days of the LGBT liberation movement. The directors of the documentary also talk with his partners, friends and family to create a very realistic portrait of this amazing man and his extravagant way of loving.
