TROIS NUITS PAR SEMAINE

THREE NIGHTS A WEEK
by Florent Gouëlou
Country: France
Year: 2022
Duration: 103'


Baptiste is a photographer living in Paris with his girlfriend Samia. Working on a project on drag queens, he meets Cookie Kunt, the queen of a popular cabaret, where she performs with other fabulous queens. Enchanted by a world he knows nothing about, he will discover Quentin, hidden behind Cookie, who will change his way of loving. This fascinating picture of a night-time world, without prejudices, depicts a personality, a way of being – a whole universe – and the “sisterhood” that underlies it. It is a story about love and friendship, seductive illusions but also real feelings.
