KONTEKST Film Festival — a grassroots festival of ethnographic and experimental film, art and thought — is returning to London this July 2026!

The theme we have chosen for our 3rd film festival is ENTANGLEMENTS. This year, in the face of the worsening climate emergency and the rise of techno-fascism and the extraction, are are looking to screen work that challenges the nature-culture binaries; that shows how humans, animals, plants, technology, and material culture are entangled, shape and impact each other; and that uncovers how exerting control over natural environment is also a way of controlling those who inhabit it. We hope to screen work that plays with ideas of kinship beyond the human, questions our assumptions about nature, and/or reveals hidden relationships between life, technology and a multi-/anti-species society at large.

OPEN CALL CLOSES APRIL 12th.

FULL PROGRAMME TO BE ANNOUNCED IN JUNE - STAY TUNED!
