CINEPUB International launches with an important partnership with Filminute – The International One Minute Film Festival. Monthly, CINEOUB will present a Filminute selection, thus giving access to a collection of the world„s best ultrashort films, each delivering a complete story in 60 seconds.
”I`ve known John Ketchum, the Filminute creator for more than 20 years. And of everything I know he did, professionally speaking, John is for me a passionat film lover and filmmaker. Filminute is a unique project and I believe we must say that though it is an international project, started by a Canadian documentarian, ITS ROOTS are in Romania. Today we celebrate
the partnership with one of the most special online film festivals in the world and last, but not least, with a man whose passion made the difference between corporate and social responsibility. If we had more Johns, we could turn the film industry, which for many years has been upside down”, Lucian Georgescu, CINEPUB founder,
The beginning of Filminute on CINEPUB is marked with five films made in Romania; other international short films will follow, of different genres, from comedies to horrors or documentaries and animations.
This week Filminute means five short films built around a common theme: childhood. Five important Romanian directors were part of the project Art for Children, an initiative “which seeks to link Romania`s greatest artists with the children of Romania, to assure them of a future in which they can fulfill their true potential”. (Art for Children)
The five directors involved in the Art for Children project are Cătălin Leescu (
Bye for Now),
Radu Jude (
Two Children/
Doi copii),
Anca Damian (
From the Car/Din mașină), Olivia Căciuleanu (
This Lonely View) and Bogdan Dumitrescu (
The Hunt).
