Uhm-ahm, where to start. Perhaps with lunchtime: on Thursday we served one of the goriest, most hard-to-watch, female revenge movies of all times (this opinion is supported by a vox populi of many BUT movie fans). At 14:30 in Chasse Cinema, you could watch “I Spit on Your Grave”. A good picture to get your mind off work during lunch break, just don’t get too many ideas.
Every year, we recognize and celebrate the upcoming and established BUT talents during our award ceremony. The crowned heroes get access to the Nieuwe Veste cellar where they throw particular rituals under the cover of night… Just kidding, we’re not the Illuminati, but we have very pretty awards and a few lifetimes of admiration.
“(..) what is man? Man is the most vengeful creature of all. And why? Because he was born unsolicited! Because he didn’t ask for existence, but got it thrown into his lap all the same. Born unsolicited, he takes revenge on the entire planet. How? By doing stuff!
Dearest BUTters,
We have some bad news. Our main guest Pollyanna MacIntosh had to cancel her visit to BUTFF due to personal circumstances.
Ard Vijn, writer for ScreenAnarchy, will introduce MacIntosh’s screenings.
Do not despair: we have plenty of beer to drown our sorrows in.
The show must go on.
In het zojuist verschenen Schokkend Nieuws: Filmmagazine over horror, sciencefiction, fantasy & cult, #157 aug/sep 2022 staan een aantal inhoudelijke artikelen, die uitgebreid ingaan op het filmprogramma van de zeventiende editie van het BUT Film Festival, met dit jaar als thema: Eye for an Eye.
BUTFF serves you a breath-taking (for various reasons) programme of performative arts. This year, you can expect:
.
Eleni Ploumi, Sat. 3-9 | 19:15 - 19:45 | BUTsquare
As a dancemaker, Ploumi always performs her own creations, strongly inclining towards performance art. Her work is characterized by intense physical activity combined with theatrical elements. "knocking on my mind" is a work developed especially for the BUTFF 2022, in which obsession and de(con)struction reside.
.
Daisy Darkpark, Thu. 1-9 | 19:30 - 20:00 | BUTsquare
Thursday, Sept 1, 20:00
.
Pier15 skatepark and BUTFF present an evening full of modular madness, as two tycoons of the underground electronic sound will make you sweat in BUTclub’s boiler room.

Das Ding
What started off with a cassette label ‘Tear Apart Tapes’ in the 80’s turned to a lifetime of playing, designing, and producing for Das Ding. A few years ago, the famed imprint Minimal Wave brought great attention to his early work. Das Ding’s live-set is always expanding, shrinking, and evolving.
Our vigilante guest for BUTFF2022 is no less than the Charles Bronson clone and the Wild West stuntman, Robert Bronzi.
Bronzi is a professionally trained actor, a stuntman, acrobat, and judo player. He’s spent most of his acting career in live performances and Wild West theme shows. Robert’s film count also includes feature films, such as “The Seven Gallant”, “Death Kiss”, “Escape From Death Block 13”. Most recently, he has signed to play The Dago in an upcoming comedy feature “Mat Rats”.
