One school of thought says that the strangeness of quantum theory can be put down to a lack of information; if we could find the “hidden variables” the mysteries would all go away.

Talented writers and filmmakers have been submitting their quantum-inspired creations to Quantum Shorts for the past nine years.
Do you have a little time to explore? We recommend you start with the winning and shortlisted films of the most recent film call. You might want to read some quantum stories too. In Quantum Shorts 2019/20, the story “Fine Print” by C R Long claimed top prize. Then visit our Inspiration section to fill up on quantum ideas.
