- Moving theater, 90 seconds imagination is spread out!Seoul Metro International subway Film Festival (SMIFF), which is hosted by Seoul Metro, Seoul international Extreme-Short Image & Film Festival and Barcelona TMB, is the first international metro film festival in Asia. Under the slogan '90 seconds of imagination, Enjoy the subway!', SMIFF has been held in Seoul and Barcelona’s subway. SMIFF hopes to make subway a non-individual space although individuals are gathered, by creating a visual culture which could be enjoyed by all passengers. SMIFF believes in the power with the space and the movie.CitySeoulBarcelonaProgramInternational CompetitionThis year, 25 films for International Competition, selected by Seoul Metro International Subway Film Festival, Subtravelling in Barcelona and 60 Seconds in Copenhagen will be screened on-line, at the cinemas, and on the subway monitors.
