🎬 QUEER EXPRESSION presents FLESH AND FUELMonday, November 30 at 7:00 PM | FACETS Chicago
A chance encounter. An unexpected attraction. A connection that crosses borders.
When Étienne meets Bartosz, a Polish truck driver, a chance encounter sparks an intense and complicated relationship. Against a backdrop of highways, truck stops, and lives already in motion, two men find themselves drawn together by desire, longing, and the possibility of something more.
From director Pierre Le Gall, FLESH AND FUEL is a provocative and deeply human queer drama exploring intimacy, masculinity, and the emotional risks of opening ourselves to another person.
Starring Alexis Manenti and Julian Świeżewski, the film was presented as a Special Screening at Cannes Critics' Week and received the 2026 Queer Palm Revelation Award.
