24 new films by Manitoban filmmakers, 96 min
The Winnipeg Film Group’s 2020 COVID-19 Self-Isolation Pandemic Edition of the 48 Hour Film Contest continues its premiere run during the Cinematheque at Home series following the premiere at the Gimli Film Festival.
This historic program features 24 brand new Made-in-Manitoba short films. The WFG is the first artist-run media arts centre in the world to sponsor the creation of works reflecting the challenging times we are all living in. All these films were created over the course of 48 hours in June 2020. An online awards ballot will be available during this run here and you are welcome to vote for all your favourite films and crafts categories.
