Welcome to Global Mobile
Global Mobile is a filmmaking challenge. Bring together eight international filmmakers to tell a story in under three minutes on the theme of food. Give them complete freedom to interpret the theme within their own cultural context as broadly or narrowly as they wish.
Amuse-Bouche (Anatomy of a Lunch)
AMUSE-BOUCHE exposes the intimate and individual, but highly public, act of ingesting—placing food in our mouths, chewing, and swallowing. In French, an amuse-bouche is a small appetizer served to excite the taste buds, literally translated as a “mouth-pleaser.”
BioPig
The Netherlands is one of the largest pork producers in Europe. BIO-PIG is the reversed life story of Pig 313 in 3.13 minutes. The story begins in a restaurant where a young boy is served a plate of pork and fries.
Cock-a-Doodle-Do
COCK-A-DOODLE-DO is a ballad of a rooster’s journey from the Indian countryside to Kolkata. In this tale, food is a matter of perspective.
Divine Food
In this mystical short, DIVINE FOOD, a priest is curiously transformed when he consumes the holy wafers of his chapel.
Hungry for Freedom
Mixing animation with live action, HUNGRY FOR FREEDOM presents a Burmese cooking segment flavored with the dire political situation in Burma.
