50 Hour Slam Showcase

The weekend of March 27-29, local filmmakers had 50 hours to write, film and edit a three-to-six-minute film. They chose to work their tails off with very little sleep — many of them repeat participants — because they liked the challenge. Saturday, the public can watch the finalists’ finished product at the annual 50 Hour Slam Audience Choice Screening. As the title implies, the audience will get to vote on their favorite film, an award handed out at the end of the evening along with the judges’ selection. But the evening isn’t all about film; expect live performance poetry and great indie-rock tunes from Pine League.
