MyMetaStories Digital Film Festival Brings First Ever Feature to Minecraft (EXCLUSIVE)


Digital showcase brings European cinema to online gaming platforms, including the first ever feature screened in Minecraft.

Running Oct. 3 – Nov. 3 on more than 30 VOD platforms alongside an Oct. 18 – 21 stint on Minecraft, this second edition will reach out to the online youth on their own terms, showcasing seven features and thirteen shorts from all over Europe – with half the projects coming from female directors. “With a mix of dramas, comedies, and genre films, the programing of MyMetaStories reflects the fresh, sharp gaze of a generation of European filmmakers who play with the codes of world cinema and [who engage with contemporary society.”] The seven features boast festival laurels from Toronto, Cannes, Berlin, Karlovy Vary, and Locarno, and will offer subtitles in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish, while the shorts were programed to emphasize accessibility, with many of them dialogue-free.
