Summary:
In 1974, millions of Americans watched in shock as an anonymous man streaked naked across the stage during the 46th Academy Awards. In an instant, prankster Robert Opel rocketed to iconic status, but to this day, few people know his story. Now, Opel's nephew - also named Robert - illuminates the story of the gay San Francisco photographer and gallery owner who lived a life of political activism.
