Fantastic Fest Presents: Littermates

host, Chester (Oliver Woolf), feeds them, helps them recover, and introduces a system of rewards: behave yourself, earn “nifties,” cash them in for hot-tub time and dance parties. Beyond the cottage, things are less nifty. But within it, a makeshift family is taking shape. While Liam embraces their new life, Mel grows increasingly curious about the world Chester insists is too dangerous to enter… In their feature debut, directors Scott Tinkham and Michael Woloson mix deadpan comedy, sibling rivalry, and creeping unease in a coming-of-age story about people who have to grow up all over again. Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the 2026 Manchester Film Festival and the Narrative Feature Audience Award at Dances With Films LA 2026, this has the sort of sensibilities that fans of Yorgos Lanthimos and Ben Wheatley will adore… and it’s a natural fit as an Alamo Exclusive.
