Who's Gonna Love Me Now? is a British-Israeli co-produced documentary film, released in 2016.[1] Directed by Barak Heymann and Tomer Heymann, the film centres on Saar Maoz, a gay and HIV-positive Israeli expatriate living in London.[1] Returning home for the first time since being thrown out by his family 20 years earlier for coming out as gay, the film contrasts his difficulties finding acceptance at home with the life he has built for himself as a member of the London Gay Men's Chorus.[1] Tomer Heymann first met Maoz one night in Tel Aviv in 1994, but the pair lost contact until roughly ten years later when Heymann recognised Maoz in the street.[2] Who's Gonna Love Me Now? was eventually pitched at the 2013 Sheffield Doc/Fest's MeetMarket.
