An outrageous lesbian pop musical satire inspired by the pop frenzy of the early 2000s, Queens of Drama charts the rise and fall of new star Mimi Madamour and her passionate, rage-fueled love affair with punk icon Billie Kohler. Over the course of half a century we follow these drama queens as they top the charts and set sail on the course of mad queer love. Featuring an iconic cast, including Asia Argento and Alma Jodorowsky, and containing hit songs like 'Don't Touch' by Yelle and 'Fisted to the Heart', this film vividly dissects the turbulence of toxic relationships--whether between fans and their idols or within passionate queer love affairs. Director Alexis Langlois brings his trademark glittercore pop-punk aesthetic to create a vibrant, unforgettable spectacle of music and passion.

David Opie IndieWire Even when the narrative is almost consumed by everything around it, endlessly quotable dialogue and unforgettable earworms ensure Queens of Drama is already a cult classic in the making. Rated: B+ May 19, 2024 Full Review Fionnuala Halligan Screen International Loud -- on every level -- proud, and not as much fun as it should be. May 19, 2024 Full Review Alan Zilberman Spectrum Culture Style is way, way more important in this kind of film, and director Alexis Langlois imagines a glittery fantasia that makes Moulin Rouge seem subtle. Sep 30, 2024 Full Review Ricardo Gallegos La Estatuilla Queens of Drama is pure fun: an explosion of color, camp, and music (I was humming “Pas Touche” for days). [Full Review in Spanish] Sep 29, 2024 Full Review Manuela Lazic Cineuropa Convenient narrative turns deflate the film of its energy and make it predictable, yet it remains satisfying to see genre filmmaking repurposed to tell such a heartfelt, queer and happy story.
