2026 HUMP! Film Festival – Fall Season
September 17, 2020 @6:30PM - September 19, 2026 @10:30PM
Brava Main Stage
HUMP! returns with an entirely new collection of short films for Fall 2026.
For over two decades, HUMP! has been a platform for independent filmmakers to explore intimacy, identity, and connection without compromise. What began as a bold experiment has grown into a global showcase of boundary-pushing cinema where emerging voices and seasoned creators present work that is as thoughtful as it is provocative.
This season continues that tradition. We look forward to seeing you soon.

All 2026 Fall Screenings at the Brava are hosted by Sally Limón!
Sally Limón is the East Bay’s Saltiest, Sourest, and Shortest Chicana Diva! She brings the audience to the stunning intersection of camp, glamour, and more camp! She is an up and coming hostess, actress, singer, and wig stylist, but she does drag because of her love of the LGBTQIA+ community and all things queer. Remember to always Live, Laugh, and Limón!

What is HUMP!
Q: I've never been to HUMP! before...can you tell me more about it?
A: Dan Savage's HUMP! – the world's best indie erotic film fest – is adult entertainment by the people for the people. Every year, hot, creative, and kinky bite-sized shorts (no film is longer than 5 minutes) are submitted by creators from around the world, and the HUMP! Jury selects the best of the best to create joyful, sex-positive, and inclusive feature-length lineups.
Q: So...I'm going to watch adult films in a theater full of strangers?
A: These aren't your typical adult films! HUMP! takes pride in celebrating all body types, shapes, ages, colors, sexualities, genders, kinks, and fetishes, and these insanely creative, independently-made shorts often redefine the adult genre. You'll see things you'd never see just sitting at home clicking around the internet, and you'll immediately find yourself cheering, applauding, and laughing along with the crowd!
Our 20 year mission of creating a public space for sex-positivity, representation, and inclusivity is feeling more important than ever, but we're up for the challenge and we know you are, too!
