The Portland Mercury Presents
2026 HUMP! Film Festival: FALL SEASON - Portland, OR
Hosted by Kate Murphy
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.

Kate Murphy is a Portland comedian, Helium Comedy Club regular, and emotionally stable adult who once won Best Humor at the HUMP! Film Festival! She's been doing stand-up in the Pacific Northwest for over a decade, which means she's performed in every type of venue imaginable and somehow managed to work with many of her comedy idols. She was a finalist in Helium's Portland's Funniest Person contest and has performed in festivals across the region. HUMP! remains her favorite gig of the year. Her comedy has been described as sharp, weird, and unsettling in a way that makes audiences laugh and then immediately reflect on their own life choices.
