Minecraft Hosts Its First Ever Film Festival
Video games and movies have been crossing paths for years. We've seen countless films and series adapted from popular games. Now, the opposite is happening, and it's happening in a big way. The MyMetaStories festival is back for its second edition, and it's bringing cinema to the metaverse, specifically to Minecraft. This unique event will run from October 11 to November 3, 2024, online and from October 18 to 21, 2024, within the pixelated world of Minecraft.
What is MyMetaStories?
MyMetaStories is a short film festival like no other. It doesn’t take place in the real world but in the metaverse and Minecraft. This innovative festival is an initiative by Unifrance and supported by Europe Creative Media.
The festival aims to introduce a global audience to European cinema. Viewers can expect a wide selection of films, including animated shorts, live-action shorts, and feature-length films, all available in multiple languages.
Event Details
The first wave of screenings will occur from October 11 to November 3, 2024, on a dedicated platform and VOD partner platforms. The second wave will take place from October 18 to 21, 2024, offering an immersive experience in Minecraft.
During this period, Minecraft will transform into a functional cinema, thanks to a dedicated server and a special mod. You can watch short films in-game with friends, making it a fun way to explore European cinema.
Additional Activities
Besides watching films, the festival offers other engaging activities:
- Explore a hub that takes you on a journey through the history of cinema.
- Play mini-games inspired by the different short films.
- Win various prizes.
