Acclaimed artists from all over the world are exhibiting films at night time screenings in the Southside district of the city until Sunday.
They include a study of stray cats drinking from bowls of milk left outdoors by the artist in Berlin's Mitte district, and a screen projecting two alternating sentences which are interspersed with everyday images captured from Birmingham streets - to  "emphasise the randomness of fate".
Called About Town, exhibits include contributions from from Cornelia Parker, Santiago Sierra, Beat Streuli, Gillian Wearing and Yang Zhenzhong.
Parts of Birmingham have been transformed into a giant open-air video installation.
