Looking for something a bit different to do in Liverpool?

Fringe Flicks: Uncanny Desires is a one-night underground short film screening at DoES Liverpool, bringing together strange, funny, and unsettling films from the UK and around the world.

This edition explores desire, obsession, intimacy, and transformation through dark comedy, surreal storytelling, and offbeat visuals. Expect films that are bold, uncomfortable, and surprising rather than polished or predictable.

The night is headlined by The Girl with the Haunted Vagina, a fearless Welsh short from 2023, alongside international films and Liverpool-made work. The programme also includes a preview of a new locally made short developed through PVTV’s Creative Meet-Ups, showing what can happen when people make work together outside traditional film structures.

Fringe Flicks is Pay What You Can and takes place in a small, informal space, so the focus is on atmosphere and shared experience rather than scale. Whether you’re into experimental film, dark humour, or just curious to try something different, this is a chance to watch adventurous cinema in good company.
