Full Plot Details

The French naval ship, Le Vengeur, based out of Marseille, has just docked in Brest for an extended stay. The ship's captain, Lieutenant Seblon, can see the passion in his men, which can as easily manifest itself in violence as it can in sex. Seblon has in part become an officer to remain at arms length from his men, one of them, Querelle, with who he is secretly in love. Querelle goes to La Feria, a bar and makeshift whorehouse owned and operated by husband and wife Nono and Lysiane, one of the whores. La Feria is infamous and notorious as anyone wanting sex with Lysiane must first roll the dice with Nono, Nono winning meaning that he will get to sodomize the loser instead. At La Feria, Querelle is surprised to see his brother, Robert, who is Lysiane's current on-going sexual partner, and who did not have to go through the roll of the dice with Nono is his special position with Lysiane. That passion in Querelle extends to his brother, the two who share more than just a family resemblance. Outwardly, Querelle goes to La Feria as a place to sell opium. However, the opium may only be a pretense as Querelle is trying to discover who he is as a man. Everyone in this collective is also on a similar sense of discovery, some who may be more aware and open about their own thoughts about the lines between sex, desire and love, those who are not as open possibly feeling shame which leads to ways to deal with that shame. Including those already mentioned, this collective includes a local stone mason named Gilles who purports to desire Paulette, a young man named Roger, Paulette's brother, with who there is unspoken sexual tension with Gilles, and Mario who, at least in appearance, "polices" the activities at La Feria.

Movie Reviews

Combustible Celluloid - 5/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonIt's probably worth a look only for Fassbinder's most die-hard fans.
Boston Globe - 5/10 by Dan YakirIt is far from perfect, but a rewarding experience nonetheless - amd a much better film than the derivative "Lola" and the convoluted "Veronika Voss" that preceded it. It is destined to become a cult classic.
New York Times - 4/10 by Vincent CanbyExcept for some things that Miss Moreau does, Querelle is not only humorless but also uncharacteristically witless.
User Review - 10/10 by Ken Venormissime, le seul film a connotation pd que je conseille, avec jeanne moreau !!
User Review - 10/10 by Marck MThe best of Genet becomes the best of Fassbinder. This is a sublime film. Marck }=))>
User Review - 10/10 by Julie KWhat an absolute peerless masterpiece this is. A glorious and sensual dream about subjectivity, objectification, image-making, masculinity and the disavowal from the male world of the abject female traits. But these traits cannot be disavowed, because all power needs fascination and fascination requires abjection. The film traces Querelle's journey from rigid singularity through an induction into a masculine world to an abject melting into the arms of the weakest of male figures. Seblon, excluded voyeur and viewer of Querelle's story is actually Querelle's final resting place - as we all finally rest before the images which dazzle us. An extremely ambiguous film, intricately bound within the image matrix it critiques - a weird and wonderful, fascinating world of mirrors, where all fall in love with their own idealized reflection & "each man kills the thing he loves." Certainly one of the most complex, provocative and seductive films of all time.
User Review - 10/10 by Chris Samazing, recently discovered this in Athens............ very iconicly gay and crazy but such a good film! French do it better!!
User Review - 10/10 by Eric RBrad Davis, you're so dreamy. This is Fassbinder's most watchable film for me, possibly because of all its homoeroticism, sexually repressed gay men, the hot actors playing sailors with well-built bodies oozing with sweat, and it being a unique tale of murder, lust and amorality. And the set is just so artificially and beautifully gloomy and desolate. I must now get my hands on a copy of the novel Querelle.
User Review - 10/10 by Sean CRainer Werner Fassbinders last Movie is a brilliant Masterpiece about the Power Games of Homosexuals for Heterosexuals like me it really explains the Being of Homosexuality i always thougt that Homosexuality is not a Thing of Unmanility but this shows cleary how it is there was one Setentence in that Movie "Because they exclude Women in their Sexuality they invent the Woman" there is always a Fight about Dominance a Wrestle for be more a Man than the other Man the Movie is also more a Adaption of the Movie Naked Lunch that the Movie Naked Lunch and Brest is the true Interzone a wicked Harbor of Pleasure and Lust in which the Men search for Pleasure with each other, Women and other Things like Drugs
User Review - 10/10 by Roger RMust be Fassbinder's greatest film - dubbed "Queer Hell" by a leading gay critic when it came out - again in honour of mardi gras week
