Jim Queen

In the heart of the Parisian gay scene, Jim is the ultimate Gym Queen, influencer, and object of everyone's desire. But when he is struck by Heterosis – a virus that turns gay men straight – his reign comes to an abrupt end. Unfollowed, abandoned, and stripped of his status, Jim is left with only one last loyal follower: Lucien, a devoted twink with a dominant mother. Together, they start looking for a cure – not just to save Jim, but to prevent the extinction of the entire gay community.

Jim Queen at the Cineville Preview Days
Straight from the 2026 Cannes underground to the Cineville Preview Days: Jim Queen is that wonderfully raunchy animated film you didn't know you needed. Creators Nicolas Athané and Marco Nguyen made a gritty trip packed with tank tops, nipple piercings, and horny techno. The search for a cure for Heterosis leads epic duo Jim and Lucien through notorious bear bars, dark GHB raves, and smelly cruising mazes. Get ready for a parade of penises and bum cheeks – Jim Queen is shamelessly filthy film, bursting with colour, and packed with queer energy.
