Take the 'Ambiancé' challenge


Most people will tell you that three hours is too long for a movie. But if you're free for the next seven hours and you're up for a challenge, try watching this grueling trailer for the longest film ever made. It's actually a 'teaser', because in 2018 the director will release a full-length trailer of 72 hours.

Ambiancé, an experimental film by Anders Weberg, will premiere in 2020 and will run for 720 hours non-stop. That's right, a movie with a running time of 30 straight days — and you thought Hele Sa Hiwagang Hapis felt long? The film's set in Sweden and features two performance artists on a beach. It's described on IMDb as a documentary where "space and time is intertwined into a surreal dream-like journey beyond places and is an abstract nonlinear narrative summary of Weberg's time spent with the moving image." I don't know what that means but it sounds really boring.

So without further ado, here's the 7-hour 20-minute trailer for Ambiancé:

In particular, I try to minimize intellectual inclinations when I create to prevent the ego, the fictitious self from intervening, and hence my works are the most loyal reflections of who I am (dreamer, fantasy-prone, sensitive, sexual and a bit dark ...
