Fleshback is this deep dive into Manchester's queer nightlife from the 80s to the 90s, and it really captures the essence of that era. The film's pacing feels almost like a nostalgic mixtape—jumpy yet cohesive, matching the rhythm of the club beats. It gives you a raw glimpse into The Hacienda and the Flesh parties, but also weaves in the societal changes of the time. The interviews are pretty candid, lending an authenticity that feels crucial. There’s a palpable sense of community and rebellion, and the archival footage is a real treat—almost like stepping into a time machine. It’s distinctive in how it embraces both the ecstatic highs and the struggles of that scene, without sugarcoating anything.
