Weird Wednesday 0711 is an alternative to the usual movie theatre programme. We seek for national and international short films, beyond the “mainstream” from old school to progressive film making.
We offer a diversified monthly framework in an established metropolitan movie theatre that includes one short film chosen from the entries on FilmFreeway to open for a curated full-length feature. The screenings are accompanied by moderation, sometimes guest speakers and get-togethers.
Our guests get the opportunity to enjoy iconic film gems from the past, exciting new discoveries on the big screen AND a glimpse of the international world of short films which is rarely seen in mainstream cinemas apart from the festival circuit.
It’s your chance to reach real movie lovers and not just the “film festival elite”.
