This past weekend, armed with a character, prop, line of dialogue and genre, 36 film teams from the Richmond area and beyond set out to make a movie in just 48 hours! Thirty-two of them turned in a film Sunday night and those films will premiere on Sunday, July 21 at the Byrd Theatre, 2908 W. Cary St., Richmond. Immediately following screenings, there will be a filmmaker Q&A and the audience will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite films and help them win an award–or maybe even move on to the Top Ten! One will be crowned Richmond’s Best Film and move on to compete against best films from 120+ other participating cities around the world at Filmapalooza, the international finals being held March 3-7 in Rotterdam, Holland. And a chance to screen at Cannes!
