About Subtravelling

What is Subtravelling?

Subtravelling is a pioneering short film festival that takes the short film genre to the Metro and TMB transport network.

The festival was launched in 2009 as an International Metro Short Course Show. A commitment by the TMB Foundation to democratize the culture and make the short film market more dynamic, bringing a selection of Catalan and international short films to all citizens, thus promoting social and cultural values among users of public transport.

Because of its success, TMB decided to continue innovating, so Roda a TMB was born, the festival section in which the creators must shoot a short film in which, in some way, TMB transports appear.

In 2016 it is associated with the Seoul Metro International Subway Film Festival (SMIFF), with which it shares features: both are the only short film festivals in the world in which the metro and public transport are protagonists.

Subtravelling today keeps intact the commitment to which he was born, and still takes another step towards professionalism. In 2020 the festival was renamed Subtravelling International New Talent's Short Film Fest BCN – SEOUL.
