Let’s make a canvas! For a memorable LGBT movie night in Brussels, let yourself be tempted by Queer, an adaptation of the novel by William S. Burroughs, starring Daniel Craig and Drew Starkey. The film by Luca Guadagnino, director of Call Me By Your Name, is set in 1950s Mexico. It explores an intense gay affair between a tormented man and an American student, mixing desire, addiction and a spiritual quest through ayahuasca. So if the synopsis appeals to you, you can catch the film in downtown cinemas.
