SUMMARY

60th anniversary special edition

Leaving his small town to attend the University of Toronto, introspective freshman Peter (Henry Tarvainen) finds a campus steeped in tradition waking up to the radical politics of the 1960s. Following a disastrous first encounter, he connects with handsome and cocksure sophomore Doug (John Labow), who quickly indoctrinates him in city and college life. But as their bond grows, Doug’s girlfriend Bev (Joy Fielding) feels increasingly cast aside and begins to question the nature of the friendship. Tensions come to a head when Peter starts dating Sandra (Janet Amos), forcing Doug to confront his true feelings and desires. 

Often described as the first LGBTQ+ film ever to screen at the Cannes Film Festival, David Secter’s Winter Kept Us Warm was one of the first Canadian feature films to attract international acclaim with its lovingly observed portrait of a burgeoning queer romance, at a time when homosexuality was still illegal in the country. A milestone in independent film production, Secter’s debut would go on to influence a wide range of Canadian auteurs, most notably David Cronenberg, who cites Winter Kept Us Warm as the film that inspired him to become a filmmaker. CIP is proud to resurrect this trailblazing classic with a new 4K restoration.
