Given the opportunity of holding the United States Academy Award-recognized international short film festival “Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia (SSFF & ASIA)” which will be held for the 22nd time this year as a 2020 Japan Cultural Expo sponsored and co-sponsored Event, we will let everyone explore the aesthetic sense peculiar to the Japanese people such as “Wabi Sabi” and “Iki” which have been the indispensable part of Japanese culture since ancient times by utilizing the characteristics of short films (short films, images) gathered from all over the world.

Discover Beauty Symposium is a symposium that invites video creators who have been active in creating movie scenes to explore the aesthetic sense of the world and Japan. Short films
selected for the symposium will also be screened specially.
