The BUT Film Festival distinguishes itself from other film festivals by screening films that deviate from mainstream cinema through their form, taste, and content:
'B-films' are films made on a small budget that do not fall under a major production studio. 'Underground films' are films that push the boundaries of what is acceptable. They often contain explicit images.
'Trash films' are over-the-top films in terms of content and visuals.
For lovers of the experimental, curious, bizarre, and absurd, a particularly varied program is put together every year.

What we offer
In addition to films, performances and art are also a permanent part of the BUT Film Festival.

Retrospectives:
