The Baltimore 48 Hour Film Project is the wild and sleepless weekend in which teams make a movie - write, shoot, and edit - in just 48 hours. On Friday, June 14, they draw their genre from "the cruel hat of fate.” They then get a character, prop, and line to include in their film. On Sunday June 16, exhausted and invigorated filmmakers make the wild dash to get their films in before the 48 hour deadline. Then it's time to celebrate the world premieres of all completed films at Baltimore's own Creative Alliance on June 23rd!
