About

For its fourth edition, this time on November 20th and 21st, the Hochelaga district, also known as "Hochelag" to locals, becomes the capital of strange cinema. For two nights, Keep It Weird takes over the city with a delirious mix of offbeat films that refuse to follow the rules.

Two evenings, two different programs, a mind-bending journey into the unknown and the absurd. Both events will take place at the same location: Studio PJE / Productions Jeun'Est, located at 4560 Adam Street in Montreal.

📅 November 20th – Short Film Program

The strange and the absurd take center stage!

Where all bizarre films are welcome, where the strange is guaranteed. Banger after banger of pure weirdness and breathtaking nonsense!

📅 November 21 – Make It Weird Film Competition

Inspired by the festival's screening night, the Make It Weird! competition follows the same rules as Party Pooper, but expands to a wider range of genres, benefiting an even more diverse pool of filmmakers. This year's theme: Strange Instrument.

🎬 Make It Weird! participants were invited to submit a strange, absurd, or offbeat short film of 5 minutes or less, with a budget of only $200. They were also required to include an unusual object, which varies from year to year.

The festival's flagship event showcases short films under 5 minutes made with a budget of $200 or less. It sounds cheap, and we can confirm it is. This closing night promises one of the most chaotic programs, a magnificent cinematic derailment. Cash prizes for the winners and beer for sale on site for the audience, just to get in the mood before the unpredictable.

An external jury will determine the winning short film of the Make It Weird competition.

Two nights. More films. No censorship.

From dark comedy to avant-garde experiments to animated madness, one thing is certain: We Will Keep It Weird.

📅 Dates: November 20-21 📍 Location: 4560 Adam Street (Montreal) 🕰️ Start Time: Doors: 7 p.m. // Screening: 8 p.m. 🎟️ Tickets ($18): Festival online box office ⚠️ As usual, no tickets will be sold at the door. ⚠️

The poster was once again designed by the excellent Alex Goulet.
