Childhood Delusions Film Festival is a whirlwind, one-night celebration of the films and videos people made as kids–before budgets, film schools, or common sense got in the way.
Expect 40+ films and videos spanning childhood home movies, claymation, music videos, delusional feature film attempts, and works that truly defy description.
Join us for the fourth edition of Childhood Delusions and see these forgotten masterpieces finally on the big screen. Walk the red carpet, hear directly from the filmmakers in an exclusive Q&A and keep the delusions going at our after-party at Trees-Lounge.
Created by documentary filmmaker and editor Curtis Whitear, and co-directed by Joe Soonthornsawad.
