MyMetaStories, a European film festival curated by Unifrance—a government-funded organization dedicated to promoting French cinema—launched Friday in the popular video game Minecraft and runs until Monday.

Taking place in a specially built virtual cinema within the enormously popular sandbox game, the free festival will showcase 13 short films created by a range of European creatives, with each one screened in a blocky Minecraft room inspired by the film.

Users will need to pick up a ticket in-game for their film of choice before heading to the virtual cinema at the scheduled time. The independent festival is taking place on a third-party server in Minecraft: Java Edition for PC, and the MyMetaStories website has instructions for accessing it.

Players will be given the choice to watch the films in a standard cinema setting, surrounded by other avatars, or in a more typical full-screen setup. Pseudonymous Twitch streamers such as Aypierre, The Guill84, Shadoune666, and Nihachu will host in-world meet-ups and discussions to further add to the community feeling of the festival.
