Idahoans Create Films on the Fly at I48new

Like drinking a little too much now and then, what brings filmmakers back to the contest year after year is the fact that they made a movie. And from time to time, they made a good movie. And as much as the short time frame limits the production scope, it also opens doors when filmmakers can't second-guess creative instincts.
