The Short Food Movie project - promoted by the Fondazione Cinema per Roma and by the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia, and selected by Expo Milano 2015 (Italy, May 1st – October 31st) to promote the event around the world - aims to create social awareness on the issues explored by the Universal Exhibition using new technologies and social medias. Short Food Movie is also an artistic project: all the short films uploaded by March 30th will form a 600 square meters video installation located in the Pavilion Zero during the Expo: a huge multicultural digital mosaic curated by artistic director Davide Rampello, creating a collective storytelling.

The videos can be shot with any device (video cameras, smartphones, tablets etc.) in any format (AVI, MPG, MPEG, MOV, MP4, WMV). Among the 15 videos gaining more votes online, a jury chaired by director Ferzan Ozpetek will choose the best 3 short films and award their directors a trip to Milan and the tickets to the Expo.
