Bumfights
|
Bumfights: Cause for Concern is an independent video in documentary style showing homeless people ("bums") fighting and attempting amateur stunts in exchange for money, alcohol, and other incentives. The film was produced by Ray Laticia and Ty Beeson in 2002 and has been distributed mainly over the Internet. The film has proved to be highly controversial: it has been banned in a number of countries and has led to felony charges, misdemeanour convictions and civil lawsuits for the producers. The film-makers maintain that the production of the video was a mutually beneficial arrangement and that the homeless people depicted freely chose to participate.
Angela Taylor the supermodel poses for the camcorder.
