And the winner is....
Saturdaynight was the presentation of the BUT-awards. In three catgories films were nominated. This years Monster theme was taken to the st.Joost academy students with the asignment to make a monsterfilm which resulted in many interesting and funny films. The Return Of The Milkman was absolutely the best and got to take home a bloody reel with an eye nailed to it. In the catagory for short film the award went to I Live In The Woods. A funny violent animation by Max Winston.
The best feature film on this years festival is HORA, it will premiere Sunday 20.00 h. in the ground floor theatre of the festival so this evening you can see the winner of the BUT-award 2009 in the presence of the director Reinert Kiil and lead actress Isabel Vibe.

AESTHETIC MEAT FRONT
Blood was smeared on the audience as they were invited to be a part of the performance by Aesthetic Meat Front. Dressed in leather sculptures, connected with metal hooks, pierced through skin
Oil drums were placed in the midst of the audience that were standing or sitting down is a half circle around the stage. Sticks were handed out for the people to participate by stroking wires connected to hooks that were pierced through their back making them human instruments. People started to hit the oildrums, tables, beerbottles, anything they could find, resulting in a rhythm that dissoved the border between the act and the audience. Making it an intense experience.


John Waters


THE KING HAS LEFT THE BUILDING
John Waters, king of trash left the festival. Last night there was an onstage interview with him and he was present with the granting of the But Awards. He gave a signing session in the lobby where everyone could get an autograph and have their pictures taken sitting next to John. The rest of the night John mingled with the audience, guests and staff. A wonderful evening in the presence of a great director. Late at night his cab drove off as we waved him a farewell. Today he will make an appearance in the Melkweg theatre in Amsterdam.

BUT kickoff

BUT opening: fotograaf MartijnStadhouders










BUT 2009 kicked of yesterday with 'Modern Love is automatic' by Zack Clark. The director from Amerika and mainactress Melodie Sisk were present for a Q&A. The film was recieved with great enthousiasm by the audience. After MLA, the band 'Bruno and Michel are Smiling with Skipper'.... from Hamburg gave a 'screaming' good performance.
In the mean time the amount of present directors is growing every hour. They fly, walk, cycle and drive themselves into the festival comming from everywhere in the world. Anyway...the mood is good at BUT!
Sorry....

Unfortunately director Iskanov (RUS) is not comming to BUT. Because of unhappy cuircumstances he was not able to arive here. His films managed to get here in time and will be shown according to the program.
