Welcome to the Byron Bay Underground Film Festival, where we tear down the walls of mainstream cinema to champion the offbeat, the eccentric, and the unapologetically bizarre. This year’s lineup is fuelled by raw creativity and a rebellious spirit, bringing the weird back to Byron Bay in all its gritty glory.
Prepare to be pushed, provoked, and maybe even unsettled as our boundary-breaking films challenge your notions of art and defy cinematic norms. Step into the shadows, embrace the unorthodox, and let your curiosity run wild at a festival that dares to be different.
Here at BUFF we know how much time goes into making your film perfect, that's why we feel it's important to award our BEST films with actual trophies.
In true Underground style the awards are repurposed memorabilia with updated plaques to celebrate your successes.
Awards are going out for.
* BUFF Cock - Best in Fest
* Best Director
* Best Cinematography
* Best Acting
* Best Editing
Trophies will be awarded at the closing ceremony. If you're unable to travel to Byron Bay, Australia we can send you your award/s anywhere in the world; just cover the postage costs and we'll get it sorted for you.
GOOD LUCK to everyone with their submissions; we're looking forward to seeing them!
