About the event
MOMO Film Festival 2026 kicks off with an evening built for discovery. We open with MOM DANCES (Switzerland, 23 min, dir. Mégane Brügger), a striking short that sets the tone for a weekend of bold independent storytelling — followed by our feature presentation, EVERYONE CALLS ME MIKE (France, 1 hr 28 min, dir. Guillaume Bonnier).
Doors open early for a welcome reception before the festival's opening remarks, introducing this year's jury, filmmakers, and the four days of programming ahead. Whether you're a longtime supporter of MOMO or joining us for the first time, Opening Night is where the fourth edition truly begins.
Grab your seat at South Lyon Theater and be part of the first night of a festival built on independent voices from around the world.
