Lynchian Online Film Festival

Let’s get Lynchian!

Lynchian, adj.
Characteristic, reminiscent, or imitative of the films or television work of David Lynch. Lynch is noted for juxtaposing surreal or sinister elements with mundane, everyday environments.

Walk With Me Productions is nodding its head at the roots that inspired the collective’s founders.
Join us on YouTube for our online festival as we go through your submissions of Lynchian-esque films.
We want the awkward, we want the mundane, we want artsy!
We want to see films that really make us think about the world around us, we want to see how the every day can be so frightening!
We want to see a film that sparks debate and forces the viewer to really think about the meaning behind what they watched.
If you’ve got a project that fits the description and you are looking to promote, submit now to get more exposure for your film!
