The 48 Hour Film Project is a wild and sleepless weekend in which you and a team make a movie—write, shoot, edit and score it—in just 48 hours.

On Friday night, you get a character, a prop, a line of dialogue and a genre, all to include in your movie. 48 hours later, the movie must be complete. Then it will show at a local theater, usually in the next week.

In 2010, nearly 40,000 filmmakers made 3,000 films in 80 cities on five continents. This year, we’re even bigger, with filmmakers around the world taking the challenge to make a film in just 48 hours.

The video of Space Case has been directed and produced by the filmmaker David Dutton. It is an outstanding piece of work. Even though it has just merely 9.000 views on YouTube right now it surely will be widely spread as soon as it hits the buzz.

A very nice short film by David Dutton. Only natural light is used in the movie. The technique of narration fits very well!

David Dutton shot this movie in Salvador da Bahia / Brazil with family and friends. What a nice outcome!
