How it feels

This is a Swedish experimental film with a planned runtime of 720 hours, making it one of the longest films ever made. The director intended to screen it only once and then destroy the only copy, so it was designed to exist only as a single event.

What happens

Ambiancé was an unreleased experimental film directed by Swedish director Anders Weberg. The film was expected to have a running time of 720 hours (or 30 days) and initially had a projected release date of 31 December 2020. Once the film's initial screening was completed, Weberg would destroy the only existent copy of the entire movie, which he said made it "the longest film made that doesn't exist". He has also stated that this was his final film. It would have been the second longest film ever made after Logistics. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
