SHORT SHORTS FILM FESTIVAL & ASIA 2019 CINEMATIC ATTITUDE

HOMEProgram & Event U-25 Project

U-25 Project supported by Nihon Safety

To encourage all amateur filmmakers, we have gathered films under 5 mins produced by creators under 25 years old. With the support of Nihon Safety, a company that encourages ambition among the youth, we introduce an online screening program which delivers fresh works with variety of talents all at once.

Online Screening from May 29th to June 16th.

Otogi

Takuto Okui/4:59/Japan/Drama/2018

Discrimination is still a big problem in today’s society. What if people made up and supported each other, would that lead to world peace? One of the reasons we have not been able to work on that matter is the media, due to our self-interest and selfish desires. This film represents how society works by twisting a Japanese traditional children’s story.

Cooking Music Video
