The Wild Indie Scifi & Fantasy Film Festival

Back at last…

The Wild Indie Sci-Fi & Fantasy Film Festival returns to the historic Genesis Cinema for an electrifying day of short films on 27th June 2026 (12:00–17:00) — and you’re invited.

From mind-bending sci-fi to spellbinding fantasy (and yes, horror fans — we’ve got you covered too), this is a curated blast of bold, imaginative storytelling from filmmakers across the planet… and possibly beyond. 🚀

Expect a packed programme of micro (2 min), mini (10 min), and short (25 min) films that will set your imagination ablaze — showcasing not just gripping stories, but serious filmmaking craft. We’re talking:

• Stunning cinematography
• Jaw-dropping practical and digital VFX
• Razor-sharp editing
• Wild production design
• And fearless first-time creators alongside seasoned indie talent

This isn’t just a screening — it’s a community-driven celebration of genre filmmaking. Last season brought a buzzing, film-loving crowd to Genesis, with plenty of networking, collaboration, and genuine indie spirit flowing through the day. This year? Bigger, sharper, and more ambitious.

The teaser trailer below is from a couple of years ago. It will be replaced shortly with this season's teaser.
