QUEER — Luca Guadagnino & Justin Kuritzkes take William S. Burroughs on a whole new trip

For their first project together since last year's steamy hit CHALLENGERS, director Luca Guadagnino (CALL ME BY YOUR NAME) and writer Justin Kuritzkes tackle another story about a sensuous 1950s romance of desire and longing: an adaptation of William S. Burroughs' novel QUEER. The pair tell host Rico Gagliano about why they vibe, how they make audiences feel the heat, and how their films are like a MAD MAX movie.

QUEER is streaming exclusively on MUBI in the UK, Ireland, Latin America, Germany, Canada, India & more from January 31.
