Filmhouse Cinemas together with Universal Music Group and partners are proud to present the official screening of Queen and Slim<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starring Oscar nominee Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out<\/em>), Queen & Slim<\/em><\/strong> is a powerful, consciousness-raising love story that confronts the staggering human toll of racism and the life-shattering price of violence. The film, from GRAMMY\u00ae<\/sup>-winning director Melina Matsoukas and Emmy\u00ae-<\/sup>winning writer Lena Waithe, will premier in Nigerian cinema\u2019s on 14 February 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waithe <\/em><\/strong>wrote the screenplay for Queen & Slim<\/em><\/strong> from a story by herself and bestselling author James Frey (A Million Little Pieces, Katerina<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While on a forgettable first date together in Ohio, a black man (Kaluuya) and a black woman (Jodie Turner-Smith), are pulled over for a minor traffic infraction. The situation escalates, with sudden and tragic results, when the man kills the police officer in self-defense. Terrified and in fear for their lives, the man, a retail employee, and the woman, a criminal defense lawyer, are forced to go on the run. But the incident is captured on video and goes viral, and the couple unwittingly become a symbol of trauma, terror, grief and pain for people across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As they drive, these two unlikely fugitives will discover themselves and each other in the most dire and desperate of circumstances and will forge a deep and powerful love that will reveal their shared humanity and shape the rest of their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
