The ELFF is proud to announce that, for the first time, we will be screening all first through third place winners we’ve had in our 48/5 Film Contests. The 48/5 began in the spring of 2006, the brainchild of Shannon Burton.

Filmmakers from the Mid-Michigan area came together to write, shoot, edit, and premiere an original five-minute production in a mere 48 hours. Participants were given specified elements, such as a theme, prop, or line of dialogue at the start of the competition, and they had to incorporate those elements into their finished film. Below are the winners of our past five 48/5 Film Contests, held March 2006 through February 2008.

Check out the Festival Schedule to buy tickets and for more information on the screening of these films.
