Queen & Slim


What's it about?

While on a forgettable first date together in Ohio, a black man and a black woman are pulled over for a minor traffic infraction. The situation escalates, with sudden and tragic results.


Why do we love it?

Grounded in reality following an extreme circumstance, Queen & Slim tackles heavy subjects like police brutality but surprises with moments of well placed humour and heart.

Who's in it?

Chloë Sevigny - Mrs. Shepherd


Who made it?

Melina Matsoukas - Director

Lena Waithe - Writer
