“This is not our world, but it will do.” Cinequest’s annual dive into the world of science fiction, fantasy, and magical realism takes thirteen films from seven countries to explore the finest in genre cinema. Stories of leaving Earth, told in both hard science and in the effect on humanity, play out alongside stories of time-travel, conquest, identity-swapping, and of course, skateboarding.
These stories explore human nature within new contexts, while experimenting with effects, narrative structure, sound design, and performance. These stories will thrill, and at times chill you to the very core.
