Getting Go: The Go Doc Project is a 2013 semi documentary film directed and written by Cory James Krueckeberg.
Plot
Doc (Tanner Cohen) is a regular gay student awaiting graduation and living in New York City. His social life is mostly in the web. The film starts with his obsession - a hot go-go dancer named Go (Matthew Camp). Doc usually spends his evenings by creating a photoshopped nude photos of Go. One night he drunkenly sends email to Go pretending to make a documentary about the NY club scene and asking if Go wants to be his subject. Surprisingly, Go replies and agrees to be filmed. The fake film becomes a real one as Doc follows Go through his daily routine and sees what life is like for him. The two grow closer to each other eventually becoming a couple. Doc leaves his shell and Go proves to be a lot deeper than the shallow facade he displays.[1]
