Sweding

Sweding is the art of remaking a film using one's friends and available resources. The term comes from the film Be Kind Rewind, where main characters Jerry and Mike attempt to re-shoot the major scenes from prominent films. Prior to the film's release, director Michel Gondry urged viewers to "Swede" their favorite films and submit them to the Be Kind Rewind YouTube Channel. Perhaps the most famous "Swede" is Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation, a shot-for-shot remake of the first Indiana Jones film, shot over a period of seven years during the 1980s.
