For the Incubate film program we’re looking for film fans who like to recut or ‘swede’ their favorite movies.

The concept of recutting is not that hard, here’s a good example:

The concept of ‘sweding’ is also very easy. It comes from the American comedy film Be Kind Rewind that started a new internet hype with so-called Sweded  movies. In the film, written and directed by Michel Gondry, the main players recreate movies that by accident got erased. After the release of the movie a lot of people recreated their own favorite movies. For some examples of sweded movies visit http://www.swededmovies.org/ or http://swededfilms.com/films.html

This year’s main theme of Incubate is piracy. That’s why we want you to pirate, recut and swede your favourite movies. Send the results to peter[AT]incubate.org

The best recuts and sweded versions will be shown at the Incubate festival.
