Comply is a satire of our relationship with mass communication in a post-truth era. Presented through a composite blend of found footage and emulsion painting, the film delves into the dizzying speed at which news breaks, distorts, and dissipates, challenging viewers to confront how we construct narratives to fit our beliefs and ideology.

This is a generative AI film
An A.I.-crafted film about Lisa, an entomologist trapped in Mexico City's drainage tunnels after a meteorological disaster. Facing isolation and decay, she must adapt to survive while confronting her own dehumanization.
WOLF MOON RISING is a love letter to the golden era of genre cinema — crafted in the spirit of Roger Corman classics like Galaxy of Terror, Forbidden World, and Humanoids from the Deep. It's designed to captivate modern audiences while giving longtime Horror and Sci-Fi fans exactly what they crave: practical effects, bold storytelling, and the pulse-pounding energy of the late '70s and early '80s midnight movies. This is the kind of film that evokes memories of VHS rentals, cult classics, and cheering crowds.
Director Thomas Leibrandt will be present!
When a doctor is kidnapped by a guerrilla group and held hostage in the jungle, she must decide whether to wait for rescue—or fight for her own freedom.

A visceral journey into the heart of the European underground punk scene, Call The Cops tells the story of a band's tour through Eastern Europe in the raw, direct style of a road movie. Between long hours on the road, high-octane gigs, lots of (maybe too many) beers, and checkpoint stops, the documentary captures the essence of a music scene that is often ignored.
In a world where daily struggles and political reality mix with a desire for freedom and anarchist ideals, Call The Cops explores the resistance, rebellion, and authenticity that still define punk today. Each stop on the tour becomes a reflection of a counterculture that, despite everything, continues to scream against the homogenization of the system.
A raunchy date has a gruesome end in this campy, shock-shlock splatter short.
Charlie is Not a Boy is the tale of a hushed soul, bound to a crumbling household in an allegorical America. With a perverted butcher for a father and a mother frozen in a quiet, catatonic spell, Charlie seeks solace in the whimsical world of his eccentric grandmother. As his safe haven unravels, Charlie navigates the hostile worlds of home and the military, caught between his authentic self and the masks he must wear.

Spoon finds a coupon.
A feverish stasis collapses into infinite distraction, spinning on the axis of an algorithm. Each pulse, an uncertain tone, breathes electricity into a half-alive world. Time stretches like soft polymer; metamorphoses creep forward frame by frame, suspiciously slow, as if the film were watching me back.
Photographic fragments are transferred onto clay, not quite sculpture, not quite collage, but something in between: a Tonermorph. Figures emerge mid-gesture, faces unsealed yet never whole, suspended within the patterns of their own skin. They falter, caught in an action bog of their own making, or perhaps mine.
A work of non-narrative cinema, the piece is guided by a score from electroacoustic and musique concrète composer Andrew Zukerman. Created during a 2025 summer residency at the Toronto Animated Image Society, with production funding support from the Society.

Horror‑performance!
Ella has a strange passion: watching torture videos. To the point where she tries the experiment and kidnaps a boy. But when she gets there, she realizes that she’s not cut out for that and wants to give up. The problem is that his victim is a suicidal person who doesn’t want to leave there alive…
Director Chedey Reyes will be present!
Ismael, a veteran pilot used to having everything under control, shares the cockpit with Daniela, a trainee co-pilot as brilliant as
she is unsettling. What should be a routine flight quickly turns into an impossible experience when a series of unprecedented
events begins to distort the reality around them.
Trapped in an increasingly strange space, Ismael and Daniela must face unexplained signals, absurd decisions and a threat
that seems to come from somewhere else: the Audreys, an alien presence whose invasion could put all of humanity at risk.
With a B-movie spirit, dark humor and a clear genre drive, The Thing in the Fog turns a single location into its own universe: a
closed cockpit where the absurd, the cosmic and the human collide as the threat of the Audreys becomes inevitable. A genre
film contained in form but ambitious in imagination, where two unlikely characters end up facing the fate of all humankind.

William Ludwig Lutgens – A Joy Sauce in the Belly
Artist William Ludwig Lutgens effortlessly moves between painting, sculpture, film and performance. His work is populated by bizarre alter egos and grotesque figures clinging to a world of rules, expectations and social masks. Humour and horror constantly overlap; what first appears comic can suddenly become uncomfortably close.
At BUTFF he presents A Joy Sauce in the Belly: a theatrical performance where grotesque costumes, music and absurdity merge into a hypnotic ritual. Like a demonic master of ceremonies, Lutgens moves between seduction and alienation, transforming visual art into a live experience that defies easy categorisation.
De Kakkerlakke
De Kakkerlakke from Maastricht dives headfirst into the collective gut feeling of the Netherlands. Their music lives somewhere between Dutch tearjerkers, punk, camp and total chaos. Or, as they describe themselves: the accidental lovechild of André Rieu, Benny Neyman and GG Allin.
Expect a joyful derailment in which the Dutch levenslied is ripped apart, dragged through the dirt, and stitched back together with obvious delight. Melancholy, humour and filth go hand in hand as the audience sings, laughs and gradually gets pulled deeper into the chaos.
Trapped in a Florida time-loop, Rory relives the same day every day, with a twist, an elusive artist drops new music daily. Follow Rory’s journey to find the mysterious musician, and maybe save the world.
