Their goal is to make it from the midwest of America to Cuba without getting caught. While this is happening their run is being broadcast across America and resulting in audiences rioting for their rights and friends turn to foes and Enemies.

Slim plays the cowboy in the movie Queen and Slim. Slim carries all the qualities of a cowboy.When the movie starts Slim is quiet and maybe seen as weak but as the story progresses it’s easily seen that Slim is a cowboy in his own right. He is full of masculinity, leadership and is self reliant. Slim is bringing order to the uncivil police system.
He is on the run with his Queen (who he plays a romantic partner to) and will do anything to protect her and honor his community. He knows he is on a mission of survival not only for himself but for the people he loves, his community and to make a change.
Queen and Slim were on a run through their version of the wild wild west.
They were moving through a town of frontier seeking new territory. On this journey they While moving in between hostile spaces, life is still being worked out and civilizations ways are not useful. Queen and Slim are in their twenties when they start this chase, they started off in their hometown in Ohio where they had to face corrupt law enforcement driving while black and then made their run from the police to New Orleans where they would find out that they were all over the news.
