Jim Queen

Hot, beefy and permanently online, Jim Queen rules gay Paris. Perfect abs, endless parties, all eyes on him. The world is his oyster. Then Heterosis strikes: a mysterious virus that sweeps through the city turning gay men straight and, horror of horrors, into football fans. As his followers succumb one by one, a terrified Jim sets off after a mad-scientist-type doctor who may have a cure. His only ally is Lucien, a twink still halfway in the closet and Jim’s opposite in every way. A biting satire of public image, the hunger for fame and the hierarchies of contemporary queer culture, it premiered in the Midnight Screenings at Cannes. And now this outrageous animated flick comes straight (sorry!) to our midnight slot.
