The Art by Chance Ultra Short Film Festival is a public art event that takes place in 26 countries, 260 cities.[1] It presents ultra-short films in unexpected and non-theatrical venues, such as subways, buses, airports, cafes, malls, trains, sports centers, art galleries, museums and bars. The movies are one minute long, presenting a single idea, without rules or guidelines. Video submissions are judged by a professional jury. It has been organized since 2009. A fifth edition is scheduled for January 15, 2015.[2]

Impact

In September 2009, the New York Magazine presented the event as follows:

We’re kind of excited by this idea: the Art By Chance Film Festival celebrates “ultra-short films” by presenting them to us in unexpected, non-theatrical venues: Movies might pop-up in subways, buses, airports, cafes, malls, etc. on digital screens scattered throughout the city. And not just our city Plus, the films, predicated on the theme of “journeys” and under a minute long, are fascinating little works[3]
