Wildeburg asked if we could bring their festival cinema back to life.
So we did, completely. We create a cinema, open 24/7, hidden on our own island in the bamboo forest, where reality gets as wobbly as the forrest floor.

The BamboeBios is constantly shapeshifting. One moment it’s a heartfelt late-night cinema, the next it’s a chaotic clown-run gameshow where someone is rapping an interpretive dance to a PowerPoint about Hildegard von Bingen and mud.

It’s a mix of: ungoogleable animation gems (in collaboration with Kaboom animation festival and Close-up film festival), improvised hosting and live music, audience-driven games, friendship rituals, live-tripdrawing sessions and cinema-as-playground experiments.

Everything is oriented toward unstranging the people around you. Because we’ve learned—through cardboard cities, guerrilla newspapers, and years of participatory mischief—that the real magic of a festival isn’t the stage or the dj’s. It’s the moment a stranger becomes a co-conspirator.
Collaborating in creating your mutual future story.
