We really want to have in-person screenings. Since it is unlikely The Flicks and The Egyptian will be open to full capacity by early June, we are pushing back the i48/2021 dates.

Competition: July 30-August 1

“All Films” Festival at the Flicks – Saturday, August 7

“Best Of” Screening and Awards Ceremony at the Egyptian – Sunday, August 8

We will pivot to a virtual event if needed but are cautiously optimistic we will be back in the theatres!

Due to the remaining uncertainties posed by COVID-19, there will be no i48 February Challenge in 2021.

Congratulations to all of this year’s participants, and to all the winners! There were some really great films.

Here are the award winners:

Best Gore/SFX: Insolvent.mov – Wiser Wolves Productions
Best Scream Queen: Marley Snow-King in Insolvent.mov – Wiser Wolves Productions
Best Baddie/Villain: Tanner LeMay in The Good News – Pineapple Productions
Best Film: Insolvent.mov – Wiser Wolves Productions

i48 is teaming up with the Old Idaho Penitentiary and Idaho State Historical Society in inviting teams to make short (4-7 minutes in duration) films inspired by true Idaho State Penitentiary stories and the men and women who passed through its walls. The filmmaker teams will have the rare opportunity to shoot their films on location at the Old Idaho Penitentiary. The finished films will be screened on the grounds of the Old Idaho Penitentiary on Thursday 9/10, Friday 9/11/20 and Saturday 9/12/20.

Due to potential “R” rated nature of the films, children seventeen (17) and younger will not be admitted without a parent or legal guardian.
