And this year the project comes to MUMBAI. The 48HFP is scheduled for the first week of May 2008. Filmmakers will compete to see who can make the best short film in only 48 hours. The winning Indian film will go up against films from around the world for the "Best 48 Hour Film of 2008", in a grand finale, which will be held in the United States of America.
Each completed film is guaranteed a big-screen screening in front of a full audience.
