If you want to know what is truly special about the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, you can now watch OIST - The Movie. Watch the trailer would be more accurate, as this short introduction video was designed to act as a trailer for the real experience of working and studying at OIST.  Short, varied bursts of information intermixed with constantly changing visuals and viewpoints give a concentrated 5-minute version of the OIST experience. There are three versions of the movie; one with no subtitles, one with Japanese subtitles and one with English subtitles. Feel free to download one or all the versions and distribute them as widely as you can. The more people that learn about the adventure of OIST the better it will be. Many thanks to all the people who participating in the making of this film with special thanks to the talented director, Gabriel Arin Pillot and soundman, Emile Trimoreau.
