Fool's 48 Short Film Project

Description

The Fool’s 48 Short Film Project is one of the Vermillion Cultural Association's featured community events. Local teams have 48 hours to write, film, and edit a 4–7 minute film. This foolish undertaking is held on (or close to!) April Fool’s Day. To add a challenge, each team draws a genre from a hat at the Friday evening kickoff event, and all teams must incorporate the same line of dialogue, prop, and location. Monday night we host the Fool’s 48 Film Showcase at the Coyote Twin Theater. It’s always a blockbuster event! 

The 2026 Fool’s 48 weekend is scheduled for March 27–29, with the showcase screening on March 30 at the Coyote Twin. Team registration is open! You must sign up before the kickoff event on March 27.
