Summer. A cruising spot for men, tucked away by the shores of a lake. It’s here that Franck falls for Michel—a man who is striking, magnetic, and lethally dangerous. Franck knows exactly what he’s getting into, but he chooses to chase the thrill anyway.
🏳️🌈Queer French Film Series-Program Note🏳️🌈
Notes on the History of French Queer Cinema: https://nostalgiaandliquor.substack.com/p/queer-french-cinema-a-historical
The history of French queer cinema is rich and diverse. During June 2026 in Paris—Pride Month—Lost in Frenchlation presents a series of films dedicated to French queer culture and lives. The series showcases a range of films from leading queer French-speaking filmmakers. Time-honored filmmakers such as Céline Sciamma, Christophe Honoré, Alain Guiraudie, Robin Campbillo, Julia Ducournau and Xavier Dolan are included in the program along with a new generation of French queer filmmakers such as Anna Cazenave Cambet and Hafsia Herzi. Through dramas and comedies, their films explore lesbian relationships, trans lives, “coming-out,” AIDS, and the pleasures of being queer.
*The Queer French Film Series is funded, in part, by the City University of New York’s Research Foundation.
