Stylish, brutally violent, and blood-soaked, Chris Marrs Piliero’s debut feature is a chilling reflection of a world where the line between reality and fiction is dangerously blurred, and a viral video can destroy a life in seconds.

You can look forward to short films that can be entertaining, harsh, and unsettling, but above all, they won’t leave you feeling calm.

Digitally restored, Fritz Langs expressionist film Destiny (1921) enchants with its unique visual language and restored period toning techniques. The screening will be accompanied live by lutenist Jozef van Wissem, whose hypnotic music inspired by regional traditions and modern motifs will enhance the films dreamy and timeless atmosphere.

Deathstalker is an ironic yet sincere celebration of heroic fantasy packed with swords, magic, and rubber-suit monsters. This over-the-top ride, guided by Steven Kostanski (Psycho Goreman), serves up bloody battles, demons, and heroic bravado in pure B-movie bliss.

Soy Frankelda is the first Mexican stop-motion feature film, earning critical acclaim and screening at numerous prestigious international festivals.
