The Theta Girl
29 Aug. Nieuwe Veste 20:30h
Opening Night tickets

Low-budget filmmaking at its finest in this energetic punk rock, gory and sexy ode to exploitation cinema. A drug pusher of the new Theta drug finds out that its psychedelic qualities may invite evil, and that it may be up to her to stop it.

Christopher Bickel, 2017, 98 min.

The blocks of shorts are a wildly popular part of the BUT Film Festival and therefore always sold out. That’s why we’re offering anyone who missed out another chance to see the shorts in Block 1, 2, 3 and 4 on a relaxed Sunday afternoon.

There’s something for everyone in this pleasantly exhausting marathon session: over the top gore, absurd humor, alienating trash, unrestrained creativity and a large dose of films with a heightened BUT factor. In other words: all the news BUT has to offer in terms of shorts, all in one place.

GAME JAM
Fri. 31-8, 19:00h Start GameJam

After last year’s success of the newly implemented element of (BUTworthy!) gaming at our festival, we ghouls decided to do it all again. We challenge game design veterans and NOOBS to break all boundaries and develop a game worthy of the BUT quality mark.

Over ruim 2 maanden begint alweer de 13e editie van het BUTFF en ondanks dat we er ongelofelijk druk mee bezig zijn, hebben we er ook hartstikke veel zin in!

En om alvast jullie zintuigen te prikkelen, hebben we in samenwerking met ADE Productions de Promo Movie 'BUT Delivery' gemaakt, oftewel, laat de BUT sfeer maar lekker stromen!

We are honoured to welcome Canadian filmmaker Bruce la Bruce, who is considered one of the primary filmmakers of the New Queer Cinema Movement that emerged in the late 1980s and early 90s in America. In contrast to directors such as Todd Haynes, Gus van Sant and Gregg Araki - all of them exponents of the New Queer Cinema - Bruce LaBruce never entered the mainstream and always kept his 'BUT-factor'.
