Writer/director Daniel Bort made a 2003 short film on the subject called "Bugchaser", which premièred at the 16th Annual Austin Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, and was shot mainly in New York sex clubs. In an interview with the "Austin Chronicle", he explained: "The matter-of-fact declarations of a string of articulate, apparently nonsensical people...affected me tremendously. I had to find out the reasons why such individuals will seek suicide in this almost symbolic way." At the Austin Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, the film was shown with an accompanying documentary "The Gift" by Louise Hogarth.
