Details of Establishment
In 2009,year, the festival, along with the Japan Travel Agency (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure,Transport and Tourism), established the "Let’s Travel! Project." To contribute to the drive to promote Japan as a land of tourism, we will more clearly define the beautiful tourism attractions and the encounter on travels by using short fi lm as image content.

In this era of diverse media access, through digital and internet broadcasts, and cell-phone applications, the compatibility of the media and short fi lms, with its high content, is highly anticipated while becoming indispensable as short form visual entertainment. In addition, with the unique properties of visual images as a universal means of communication and the strong impact of visual expression created in a limited amount of time, short films are perfectly matched with modern lifestyles and is drawing wide interest with its ability to cross borders and reach countless people with its universal content.

This project called for submissions of short films with the themes;" it’s great to travel," " I want to travel,” and“I want to travel to Japan.”For this year 10 shorts out of 106 were selected for the competition.
