Derek Jarman’s first feature, a Latin-language British historical film co-directed with Paul Humfress and written by Jarman, Humfress and James Whaley. It portrays the events of the life of St. Sebastian, including his iconic martyrdom by arrows. The film, which was aimed at a gay audience, was controversial for the homoeroticism portrayed between the soldiers and for having dialogue entirely in Latin. (Wikipedia)
