LSFF: Lo-Budget Mayhem 2025 + Intros
One of LSFF’s most popular annual programmes returns with a cracking collection of oddities, hand-crafted from the confines of our empty wallets and our mortal bodies. The sets are made of found newspaper and the butchers’ leftovers, and the cast is the filmmaker, their mates, and a sock puppet.
Come with us to see what happens when the budget is tight, but the mind knows no bounds. This year we offer you a journey through worlds of Magritte-style living matchsticks, snooker playing puppets, and vengeful street lamps. The guts are fake, but the meat is real.
