Spliff is a brand new film festival from the folks behind Dan Savage’s Hump! fest. While Hump! shows homemade, but well-curated, porn, Spliff will feature films “made by the stoned for the stoned” that are a maximum of four minutes and 20 seconds in length.
The SPLIFF Film Festival is where filmmakers, artists, animators, and stoners share original film shorts exploring stoner themes. From serious takes on pot culture to stoner comedy to mind-blowing weirdness—they all have a home at SPLIFF. Creative types of all stripes entertain, challenge, and amaze SPLIFF audiences with short films that examine and/or celebrate recreational marijuana use and its liberating effects on our imaginations, appetites, libidos, and creative energies. At SPLIFF, you’ll see films that will make you laugh, films that will make you think, and films that will make you ask, “What the fuck was that?!”
The festival will show in four cities — Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Denver — in April 2019.
Filmmakers: Smoke a joint, pop an edible, or vape, then make a film and submit it for consideration by March 1, 2019. That’s enough time for even the most stoniest of the stoners amongst us.
