Angel 

Year: 1982
Country: Greece
Director: Yorgos Katakouzinos
Starring: Michael Maniatis, Dionyssis Xanthos, Katerina Helmi
Synopsis: One of Greece's first films to deal with homosexuality, this is the story of a man so in love that he allows his boyfriend to turn him into a transgendered prostitute.
Quick review: Ugh. Just read that description again and you'll get an idea what I thought of this film. OK, it was a groundbreaking film in 1982. But it is so filled with stereotypes and the lead's overacting make it impossible to enjoy today. Angel is cruising for sex in a local park when a police raid threatens to expose him. He escapes with the help of a hunky sailor, who soon begins to pursue Angel. Eventually they become a couple and just like that, the sailor has convinced Angel to start dressing up like a woman and selling his body to whomever is willing to pay. Say what? You heard me. It's an over-the-top abusive relationship and an over-the-top film that abuses its viewers intellect. Eventually, our overacting gay lead grows a pair and confronts his lover. But I suspect if you do see this film, you won't stick around long enough to see that conclusion.
