Filmmaker Anton Corbijn directs what has been claimed to be the world's shortest and smallest movie

Filmmaker Anton Corbijn has directed what has been claimed to be the world's shortest and smallest movie. The clip has been placed on normal stamps for the Dutch and international postal service TNT, Dexigner reports.

Communications agency Kessels Kramer was tasked with taking advantage of progress in lenticular printing, which now allows 30 frames - around one second of footage - to be shown.

KesselsKramer creative director and founder Erik Kessels said: "Anton was our first choice since we have worked with him before.

"Also, like us, he works in many different fields of visual communication so he understood exactly what we wanted to do."

Corbijn, who is famed for his rock photography, music videos and movies Control and The American, was reportedly inspired by a 1951 Dutch stamp by Cas Oorthuys showing a girl in front of a windmill. His own version of the pose features Black Book actress Carice van Houten biting her finger.
