What is a 'sweded' film?

Sweded films are summarized recreations of famous or well known films using limited and low budget resourses (budget props to mimic source material) and technology such as a camcorder. These films are much shorter in length than the originals. 

A common example of a sweded film is 'Be Kind Rewind' staring Jack Black. After 'Jerry' accidently wipes all of the films at the video store he proceeds to shoot Sweded films in order to replace the films he wiped. Since then it has been widely popular to create Sweded films most commonly uploaded to You Tube.
