A one-minute film is a micro movie that lasts exactly 60 seconds. Although it belongs to the microcinema constellation, it is distinct for being precisely timed. There are film festivals dedicated to it.[1]
The one-minute film implies a creative challenge due to its brevity, which demands an exercise of synthesis when writing the script.[2][3] It is appreciated by filmmakers and film schools as a tool to deepen cinematic understanding and a way to acquire, with its realization, new levels of craftsmanship.[4][5]
The appearance of one-minute films can be traced back to the birth of cinema, with the first pieces by Auguste and Louis Lumière being very close to one minute long.[6]
