The funkiest of independent short film festivals returns with an event that has been burning our fingers, lips and genders for too long: the Queer Mais Trash!
Initially planned as part of Belgian Pride Week, the Queer Mais Trash screening will take place on 8 October at the Cinéma Aventure.
# 1, the best of queer from the last Courts Mais Trash festival:
AMOURS LIBRES (Emily Worms) BABYDYKE (Tone Ottilie) REVOLVO (Francy Fabritz) ERWIN (Jan Soldat) THE PAINT WIZARD (Jessie Auritt, Jessica Wolfson) WALLY WENDA (Diane Russo).
# 2 – but not least! -, a selection of new short films selected for your viewing pleasure:
JESSE JAMS (Trevor Anderson) PROGRESSIVE TOUCH (Michael Portnoy) QUEEN (Youssef Youssef) ROMY & LAURE… ET LE MYSTÈRE DU PLUG ENCHANTE (Romy Alizée, Laure Giappiconi).
Whether you have glittery nails, a punk beak, a cute or bitchy tongue, a political speech, an angry or just happy soul, a non-binary heart, a mutant sex, a fluid gender, there will be something for everyone – all tastes and all genders.
And it is YOU, of course, beloved viewers, who will vote to chose the best film of each screening. At stake: €500 to be shared. Kisses and hearts on you, Queer Mais Trash is waiting for you!
