Queer romantic comedy “Three Nights a Week,” set amid the Parisian drag queen scene, will open the Venice Film Festival’s Critics’ Week which has unveiled its lineup of nine titles, all of which are world premiers.
The section’s out-of-competition opener is directed by Florent Gouëlou who, besides having a master’s degree in cinema from La Sorbonne, is also a committed drag queen who performs every month on the Flèche d’Or stage in Paris.
