Every fall for the past twenty-odd years, the Lausanne Underground Film & Music Festival has occupied the Casino de Montbenon (which is actually NOT a casino - but this almost-120 years old building is simply named that way) and various other places in Lausanne. During five days, the festival commits to offering an avant-garde and outside of the mainstream artistic programme, combining films screenings, sound performances, workshops, exhibitions, and book launches.
Over the last 18 years, Lausanne Underground Film & Music Festival (LUFF) has been going to great - but exciting - pains to rub its audiences the wrong way and to offer original and off-the-wall programming. LUFF’s objective is to fuse music and cinema together into a chemistry of weirdness, drawing from a wide range of avant-garde artists and innovative creations which in most cases have never before been seen in Switzerland.
