METRO MOVIES
A POP-UP SHORT FILM FESTIVAL IN PUBLIC SPACE
Metro Movies is a pop-up short film festival connecting and celebrating the city. Central topic will be the city, a place where people come together, share their dreams and generate new ideas that shape our world. Metro doesn’t only stand for metro but also for Metropolitan.
Next to improving public space, Metro Movies wants to be a platform for filmmakers, filmlovers, and everybody who likes to inspire and get inspired. Further, the location of the festival literally happens under the metro line, at the station. The space is between two divided ‘communities’ that of the Bijlmer, an diverse, mixed income, social housing area, and Amstel III, an suburban office park. The project at least for a day, brings these to communties together via the common interests of culture, food and public space.
