Languages through lenses 2009
These are the results of a short-video competition for students, organized by ELIA as part of the EU's campaign to promote multilingualism. The premiss was that films had to be either one or three minutes long and understandable without words, or with as little words as possible.
View all the films
In the framework of the European Commission's promotion of multilingualism, students from ELIA art schools were selected to produce short (3-minute) films reflecting the richness of language diversity. You can view the results of the 2008 competition here:

...I see you - The language of the arts and intercultural dialogue
In 2007, students from ELIA member schools in seven countries participated in the film project "The Language of the Arts and Intercultural Dialogue".In a variety of styles, from documentary to drama, stop-trick and cartoon animation to wordless art film, each contributed a short film that dealt with the theme of intercultural dialogue from their own artistic and personal standpoint.
A publication about the project was made in 2008.
