“Against all expectations — not of the film-maker, but his subject — the True Stories film Dogging Tales proved to be one of the documentaries of the year so far. It would have been easy to make it sneery and tempting to film this sexual subculture voyeuristically, but Leo Maguire, who made Gypsy Blood last year, instead produced an account that was in turns funny, touching, sad and, occasionally, I am sure to those who have considered the option, inspiring”
The Times

“This eye-popping documentary has gained the trust of season “doggers”, all disguised beneath animal masks. “undertakers, vicars, solicitors, weirdos… we get the lot,” says Les from beneath his owl mask, while a lorry driver estimates that 70 per cent of truckers are at it”
The Independent

“Director Leo Maguire simply allows these characters to speak for themselves, in a film that is certainly not judgemental but is also tinged with sadness as we discover the emotional needs that have driven them to their lifestyle”
