Filminute - One minute films
Filminute is, as their site says, "the international one-minute film festival that challenges filmmakers, writers, animators, artists, designers, and creative producers to develop and submit the world's best one-minute films."
I found some very interesting one movie clips there.
The entry from India is titled "The Staircase" and is in the top 25 finalists. These top 25 films have been chosen from over 1500 entries across 16 countries.
I really liked "The Staircase" and you can click here to view this film. I liked the simplicity in which the entire scene has been conveyed and all that in just one minute! The Staircase has been directed by George Mangalath Thomas.
Another movie which I liked is "Support" from Iceland.
Check out all the 25 one-minute (or filminute) movies here.

i like visiting your blog! you really take the time to write something that makes sense, sometimes thought provoking.
inktales>> Thanks Soo :)
Great collection Dhi, my favs are the same ones too, and the one in the gym - Stitch up showdown (#23), guess it has a deeper meaning. The Support one actually had me thinking how death would be like...
Thank you Dhimant, for your support for our film "The Staircase"

Dhimant, I was very touched by your support. As I am whenever anyone comments on the film, which is a very personal testament. I do not know whether we will win any of the awards. It means a great deal to us that our film has got this far. Incidentally, ‘The Staircase’ won Gold at the Indian Documentary Producers Awards earlier this year, beating some pretty high priced competition. A long journey for a no-budget film!
nita>> I really liked the film so the appreciation had to come :-)
George>> An honour to have your comment here! It is indeed a brilliant film and I wish you success in all your future endeavors.
