Daniel Craig in a role that cuts deep. A landmark work of the Beat Generation comes to the screen.

William S. Burroughs – the iconic American writer, spiritual father of the Beat Generation, pioneer of cyberpunk, and tireless literary experimenter – wrote his strikingly autobiographical novel Queer in the early 1950s. In this raw and unflinching confession, he explores the inner world of a drug addict and homosexual man desperately longing for love and acceptance.

Too explicit for its time, the novel wasn't published until the 1980s. Now, it comes to life on the big screen under the direction of Luca Guadagnino, the visionary filmmaker behind the generational touchstone Call Me by Your Name and the recent hit Challengers.

The tortured alter ego of Burroughs is portrayed by Daniel Craig, whose extraordinary performance has earned praise from critics and audiences alike, positioning him as a major contender for top film awards on both sides of the Atlantic.

A film unafraid of the truth. Intimate, dark, and unforgettable.
