Cybergrime is a disgusting erotic nightmare lovingly extracted from the fiber optic cable lodged in the slimiest depths of your brain. Oversaturated and underexposed: 8 twisted short films plus original glitch art form this breakneck 62-minute collection of hypersleazy technophilic homo-depravity. Program includes: “Annihilator” (Kyle Mangione-Smith – USA, 2022); “A.I. Mama” (Asuka Lin – USA, 2020); “1-888-5-BLUE-YOU” (Eric Griffin & Jake McClellan – USA, 2021); “S.I.D.S.” (Louise Weard – Canada, 2018); “Un PD avec PC” (Roland Lauth – Germany, 2021); “MonsterDykë” (Kaye Adelaide – Canada, 2021); “Black Pill” (Jessi Gaston – USA, 2020); “Pure Filth” (Ty Williams – USA, 2018); with titles by Is Chabon. Curated by Henry Hanson of Full Spectrum Features, a Chicago-based non-profit dedicated to supporting underrepresented filmmakers.

Last year, Kaye Adelaide and Mariel Sharp won Best Canadian short for their incisive and charming short comedy, DON’T TEXT BACK. This year they're back with the gritty and erotic monster love story MONSTER DYKE. A transgressive portrait of desire shot on 16mm, MONSTER DYKE examines trans-lesbian love and longing with humour, heat, puppetry and a subversive twist. – Justine Smith
