Race d'Ep est un film documentaire français d'une durée d'une heure et demie réalisé par Lionel Soukaz avec la collaboration de Guy Hocquenghem (1979).
Ce film militant est tourné à l'automne 1979, à l'époque des grands mouvements de libération homosexuelle et pour la reconnaissance de l'homosexualité (race d'Ep signifie « pédéraste » en verlan).
Sur des textes de l'écrivain-philosophe Guy Hocquenghem, qui en est l'un des principaux acteurs, ce documentaire est une reconstitution cinématographique de l'histoire gaie et lesbienne sur une période d'un siècle.
Jugé scandaleux lors de sa sortie, Race d'Ep fut classé X. Mais, grâce au soutien d'intellectuels tels que Michel Foucault, Roland Barthes, Gilles Châtelet et Gilles Deleuze, ou d'un dramaturge comme Copi, le film a pu être projeté, mais dans une version expurgée.

The film begins with a plot structure based on a progression of chapters titled as "Voyages" in Hart Crane's life loosely related to Crane's lyric poem of the same name. In the first "Voyages", a depiction is made of an early attempt by Crane to take his own life. Among the other opening "Voyages", the audience is also shown depictions of several same sex relationships which Crane had throughout his lifetime in semi-graphic portrayal consistent with the film's rating. Crane's life is shown progressing through the various "Voyages" in the film, largely portrayed through his troubled relationship with the father, his close relationship to his mother, and his frustrating relationship to his job in advertising as a copyrighter in New York City. In the final "Voyages", Crane's difficult relationship to alcoholism is depicted, ending with his final "Voyage" on a small cruise ship at sea in the vicinity of Mexico where Crane ended his life by his own hand.

Ishida leaves his wife to pursue his affair with Sada. Sada becomes increasingly possessive and jealous of Ishida, and Ishida more eager to please her. Their mutual obsession escalates to the point where Ishida finds she is most excited by strangling him during lovemaking, and he is killed in this fashion.

États-Unis, années 40. Dans une étonnante propriété se côtoient quantité d’hommes (presque) nus qui batifolent autour de la piscine. Ce décor, c’est celui dans lequel évolue Bob Mizer, fondateur de « The Athletic Model Guild », un magazine de photos où les hommes posent nus ou presque. Jack Lalane, Joe Dallessandro et Wayne Stanley, anciens modèles de Mizer, témoignent chacun à leur manière de leur expérience. Pour la plupart d’entre eux, Bob Mizer dotait la jeunesse américaine d’un bréviaire de la forme et de la santé sans aucune intention homoérotique. Des procès furent pourtant engagés et une chasse aux sorcières organisée contre ces photographes jugés scandaleux. Mêlant allégrement documents d’archives et scènes de fiction délirantes, ce documentaire est à la fois l’histoire d’un homme et celle d’une époque.

Le film montre comment le cinéma hollywoodien a évoqué le thème de l’homosexualité, comment cette représentation a évolué au fil des ans et comment, en retour, elle a influencé la perception de l’homosexualité par le grand public.
