About FILTH!
Placing together queer history and queer presence in Cinema, we ask you to enter and expand the annals of Queer Film. With this series we showcase queer erotica past and present, centralizing queer desire to remind us of our histories. From vintage arthouse pornos, 80s-90s backroom home movies, 00s web boom, and into the tech fueled world of the 2010s to present we contextualize queer desire through multiple lenses. As we fight for physical queer spaces today and find ourselves equipped with cameras/computers in our pockets and generations of underseen queer history at our disposal, where do we go?
This is our proposal to you, but let us warn you… it’s FILTHY!
FILTH! First premiered in Chicago in 2023 as a 4 part series. Reel 1 came to Austin in May 2025, marking SEEN’s Texas debut. This fall we are bringing a Filthy version of our traditional HalloSEEN program
Sliding Scale PLEASE READ
All artists have generously agreed to share their work with you despite our inability to guarantee substantial payment. While SEEN believes strongly in community supported and funded work we only have financial support for Wisconsin based events for the current year. All other events are still fully community funded. Everything you give goes directly to paying artists and our operational costs to meet in a physical space that prioritizes intentional and underground events like this.
Plenty of our screened/screening artists have been deplatformed for promoting this type of work, fight actively to keep legislation from shutting down their operations, or have stepped back because of financial difficulties. We also believe that art and culture should be accessible to all regardless of current material conditions. We ask that you be honest with yourself about what you can afford to give and consider yourself in the broader scope of those impacted by the ongoing colonization, mass neglect, and increased censorship in the US. We want to thrive together and revel in filthy films with you for many years to come, but that is only possible through community contributions.
