“a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result.“

Seems like a reasonable fit

I disagree. It's more fitting than deliberately contrary. I would possibly see it if film had a point of being deliberately against the events depicted. A better of example of what I'm thinking is the story of the anti-piracy organisation illegally using music (as in without permission) in their anti-piracy ads.
