About

*Presented in the Midnight Session at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.

When Heterosis - a mysterious virus that turns gay men straight sweeps through the Parisian gay scene, Jim, the six packed sovereign of the Gym Queens, goes from Pride royalty to social outcast. With only Lucien, a freshly-out twink with more heart than abs, still by his side, Jim must race to find a cure before the disease erases the community that once worshipped him.

“Without getting too sappy or strident, JIM QUEEN explores how sexual fluidity can open up exciting possibilities but also break people’s hearts”
