We are proud to present the following winners of the 18th edition BUT Film Festival:

What a fantastic 18th edition of BUTFF it was! Great audience, guests, performances, artists, musicians and all those BUT beers went down well with everyone!!!

We from the BUTFF organization would like to thank all the BUT volunteers. Because without you we are nowhere! 

Every year, we hand out several Awards to celebrate the BUTtest feature film, the BUTtest short film, and the most BUTtiful performances. We also give out a special award to a personality whose accomplishments stand out in our genres. The awards are designed by Marc Heijmans.

PINK FLAMINGOS

As part of the Pink Flamingos subtheme, we highlight a number of LGBT+ films. Really, we’re just bringing extra attention to films that have always been part of our selection. By doing so, we want to emphasise inclusiveness and welcome an even wider and more diverse audience. After all, BUTFF accepts everyone, as long as you’re a weirdo. This year we have German cinematographer Jürgen Brüning as a guest, who delivered “Klappe” (2022), an audacious masterpiece that took 16 years to craft:

WHATS MORE ON THE MENU?

By tradition, of course, there is much more to enjoy at BUTFF than just thematic films. The many submitted thematic short films are also part of the festival in so-called SHORTBLOKS and outside the movie theaters on the BUT square, the much-needed PERFORMANCES are staged full of poetry, acts and music.
