French actor discusses cruising on a nude beach

Pierre Deladonchamps stars in thriller Stranger by the Lake

Stranger by the Lake star Pierre Deladonchamps talks about cruising, being naked on set, and the same-sex marriage fight in France.

The lead actor in Stranger by the Lake recently sat down with Xtra to chat about cruising, being naked on set and the same-sex marriage fight in France.

When asked about the graphic sex scenes in Stranger by the Lake, Deladonchamps says, “The scenes between Michel and Franck when they make love and everything, I think it’s not related to porn because it’s very sensual and they make love, and you see that they don’t do sex like when you can see it on porn movies.”

Stranger by the Lake has been well received despite its graphic depictions of sex. It won the Queer Palm at its premiere at Cannes. The movie will screen at Toronto’s TIFF Bell Lightbox starting Friday, Jan 17.

Deladonchamps talks about the movie in the above video.
