HALALOWEEN
A Muslim Horror Film Festival
A passage beyond familiar Western nightmares and into Muslim horror, folklore, spirituality, and cinematic encounters with the unseen.
THOSE BETWEEN WORLDS
A Jinn DreamscapeÂ
The screen becomes a passage into the unseen. Jinn, shadow, and fragmented visions emerge as destroyxbeauty (Reginald Tiessen) and Victor Ghannam (National Arab Orchestra) improvise a live score beneath them, electronic atmosphere entwined with oud, qanun, and Arab musical tradition. Image and sound remain unfixed, creating a dreamscape that can exist only once.

NOCTURNAL RITUALS
An Intimate Q&A w. David J (Bauhaus)
The evening culminates in an intimate Q&A with David J of Bauhaus, exploring the films, literature, surrealism, occult imagery, and shadow worlds that informed his music, artistic process, and enduring creative mythology.
THE SPECTRAL SCORE
Grand Guignol Live Score Performance
Four macabre visions of French Grand Guignol cinema emerge from the Severin Films archive, reawakened through live scoring by David J of Bauhaus. Born from a tradition infamous for horror, madness, and the grotesque.
MILA LA MACHINA
The She-Devil of Excess
As restraint gives way to beautiful ruin, the She-Devil of Excess emerges. Mila La Machina conjures a decadent spectacle of blood, glamour, and transformation, where indulgence becomes performance and desire knows no measure. She does not tempt you toward excess, she arrives already drowning in it.
DJ WRAITH
Nocturnal Transmissions
Wraith curates from the crooked edges of the dance floor, industrial pulse, Dark Disco, psychedelic electronics, cinematic rarities, and beautifully misplaced sounds. A nocturnal transmission for strange bodies, restless spirits, and anyone willing to dance somewhere slightly left of reality.
