Plot Synopsis

Spanning six decades from his childhood in the early 1900s to his death in 1956, the film turns the microscope on the man whose landmark studies on the sexual behaviours of the common man, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, rocked a nation. Asking thousands of people about the most intimate aspects of their lives, Kinsey lifted the weight of doubt and shame from a society in which sex was hidden, and knowledge was dangerous. His work sparked one of the most intense cultural debates of the past century – a debate that rages on today.
“Bill Condon deftly weaves social history, biology, sex education and pop culture into this compelling biopic… Neeson gives a powerful performance” – The Observer
