A future out of sync. Bodies that glitch, mutate, or refuse their assigned roles. Queer Sci-Fi & Horror Shorts uses genre as a queer tool — to unsettle norms, bend reality, and imagine other ways of being. Monsters, machines, and uncanny worlds become mirrors for desire, fear, and transformation.
These films don’t offer comfort or clear answers; they embrace the strange, the unsettling, and the unknown. In these speculative visions, queerness survives by changing, resisting, and re-inventing itself.
