this time on colore making a film in 48 hours borders on insanity and has become an international sensation but you know you teach me when when you start getting better. It's all ahead, on colore. Executive producer Liv Langston presents three award-winning short films from around the world made in only 48 hours. The 48 hour film project is going into its 12th year right now and we're in 125 cities around the world. My business partner Mark Rupert and I started this in Washington DC 12 years ago and we
just did it with a group of our friends and it's been very exciting that so many people from so many different cultures have made films and it's really interesting to see how good the filmmakers have gotten over the years. Well the way that the 48 hour film contest works is that each team will go into the kickoff event which is Friday night at 7 o'clock and they draw a genre from a hat so they can have any of 13 genres so they could draw romance or a dark comedy or a sci-fi horror film before then they have no idea what they're going to make and then in each city we find everybody in the same city the same character prop and line of dialogue that they have to include in their film. Sunday night is when we hold our drop-off and at the drop-off all the teams have to get their films in at 7.30 on the dot if they get it in at 7.31 7.32 it's late so we still screen it but they're just qualified from the judging so people are just racing across town in their cars with their tapes trying to
get it in at the very last minute. We had one episode in St. Louis where somebody got there just as everybody was doing the countdown 10 9 8 he threw it across the room and the city producer caught it and it caught it right before they finished the countdown. Me it's always really inspiring to see so many people working together on such a tight time frame and coming up with something from nothing. Now we're about to watch a film from Cape Town South Africa it's called Past Tents it's a romantic comedy and it's one of our very best films from 2012 it was one of the top three winners and it went on to the Cannes Short Film Festival it's represented. When was it? Can I get you anything to drink? I'm waiting for it. I knew it, a beautiful woman
like you never see too long. Hi, I'm sorry I'm late my bicycle chain broke. I have a carbon I'm trying to reduce my carbon footprint you know you will do a bit. Oh I have a present for you. It's 100% biodegradable and it's made from a new home. Thanks I really like it. This is the guy. You look good together and you are a lucky man. Can I get you anything to drink? Shopper. I don't drink. I'll have a glass apple juice please. I'm sorry I'm just going to make a quick fuck. Okay. Hey, no, it's fine. He's a bit out there but I'm really good
fine. What is this? Give me your house red and make it snappy. Listen, I'm from the future I don't have time to explain but you need to end this whatever this is right now. Just walk away. This relationship ends badly for both of us. Trust me. End it now. Sorry about that. So my friends is into conservation. I'm finishing up my B.A. and I might work for an NGO and do my honors by time. Excuse me. One second. Okay.
Okay. Give me your wife. I'm, I'm just cool. Open your mouth. So I'm from the future, I'm here to tell you that things don't work between us, it gets messy, so I need you to do both of us a favour, end this right now. Right now. Things are getting a bit weird.
Shall we start over? Yes. Sorry, excuse me. Just two seconds. Sure. Just end this already. Just get out of here. Just let. You got the same idea, huh?
For once. Do you think it'll work? Was this a bad idea? I've lied to you, it's ever been a good idea. I look pretty good back then. You look good right now. You got fat. So, do we do this? Do this. Was it all bad? Come on. Hello.
Hello. Does my girlfriend work? Next up is a sci-fi film called Sweetie. It was made in Albuquerque, New Mexico by Trifecta Plus Entertainment. It was one of our best films from three years ago and actually went to the Cannes Film Festival as part of the short film corner. Thank you.
Thank you. Hey, Sweetie. Well, Dr. Bolander was asking about you today.
He was going out of his skull, you should have seen him. I thought he was going to have a storm down the lab and he just, he doesn't do that, it's funny. I'm not going to say anything. Sweetie, don't worry, okay? They're not going to find us. Come on. We love you. So, there's some bad news. Seems that there was another camera in the lab.
I thought I got them all but I guess I'm just one. I don't know, maybe they're looking at the tapes right now. Jesus, I said I don't know. I think I got it, Sweetie. See, the problem is the skin. You were gone for seven hours before they found you. So, I just need to figure out a way to reverse the damage to the brain. It's where it's at, it's where it's at, it's where it's at.
I don't know, you're still in there. Why'd you do it? Is it an accident? I'm not, I'm not passing judgment, I guess. I just don't get it. You're so beautiful.
I saw this in a pawn shop downtown and I thought of you. The old lady had this on sale. Well, I played guitar when I was in college to figure it out. I know, I know, that's exactly what she said. But, you know, you teach me when you start getting better. I guess we just crossed that bridge when we come to it. Sweetie, how was your day?
No, no, no, no, it's okay. I mean, I just got a little fight, it's fine, it's fine. No, it doesn't even hurt, really. They looked at the tape and apparently there were a couple of frames where you could see my face, but it's okay. It's okay because I didn't do that, okay? You want to see me? I just need more time. No, no, I won't.
No, no, no, no, no. I love you, sweetie. Yeah, dear. We're about to see our 2012 Grand Prize winner. The best film out of our 4,000 entries, it was made in Paris. It's called Jacques-Saire.
Jacques-Saire is actually a well-known actor in France, and he's playing himself in it. And it's a dark comedy. It's got some edgy material, some people might be offended. Yeah, listen, I think we're going to see this film. I'm on the plate, it's the last day. I'll be right back. What's going on? We're waiting for the tickets for the cascades. No, we're not waiting, guys. It's the last day, three-month tour. We're all recording, so we're going to find a solution to get the tickets. Okay? That's correct. Okay, let's go. That's correct. We're going to do something. Are you sure it's your turn?
You know you're in a distance. Okay, Mr. Sir, you're leaving. Everyone in my tour! We're going to the tour! The engine is dead. The tour... The train! Jacques! Action! Christian Raël, you're dead. Yeah. I'm very scared. Bye, Scott. Glad to see you. Mr. Sir? Mr. Sir? Have you heard of us?
Have you heard of a sign? Yes, I know I'm a producer, but I'm not going to stop the last day of the tour. I'm going to work in the workshop. I'm going to try it out. What's going on? What's going on? What's going on? The lift. No, no, no. We're going in. Wait. The team will never go in. I can tell you about the situation, that it would honor your memory, and that we have no other way to go than to sign this film. I'm going to try it out.
I'm going to stop the last day of the tour. I'm going to try it out. Finish it. We had a feeling. Yes, a feeling. It was a character. Thank you. Scott, it's good over there. OK, it's a following stage. We're going to look for Justin. I'm sorry to say that, but it's more than the rest of the stage, since he's dead. I don't say it's an accessory. Yes, it's an accessory. Well, then, that's why. What's the accessory? You're a dancer. So you don't know what's going on. But you're doing your stage exactly the same. Thank you. There's a problem.
What's the problem? I can't believe it. What do you mean? You're a comedian. You're supposed to be a secretary. You're the maquillist. Don't worry. He's dead. I don't even look at him. But I don't care. It's the last scene of the film. Because you're going to make the last scene. And what's your first name? My name is Orienne. My name is Orienne. No, no, no. It's Orienne. It's for the first time. Orienne! OK. He's going to be free. Motari? Wait.
He's going to be free. Come on. You have to be free. You're not free. It's a scene of love. But you're on your face. You give him that sweet smile. Look. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. With the shoes. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him.
Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. He's got that love! Look at him. Look at him. And handsome. The last scene that I was навipping. Making Nachoni an egg. Is Nach attitude great? Have you ever seen a egg? Yes. She couldn't capture the film but it's under her eyes. That's my life, my life. I can't live without a father... it's beyond your control. Who's with her? Do she want to get separately? I'm scared of you, Katia. I'm getting fucked up! And the best in your field. I'm going to kill my son! I don't even know what to do!
I don't even know what to do! You know me, I'm an idiot. I don't want to. Next time, I'm Golores. New Mexican, new gene human shares his vision of what is beyond the narrative of a painting without dismissing the familiar. The first hit at a subject was great as a kind of spontaneous thing as an expression of exuberance. As part of Shakespeare uncovered, we see Hamlet me, his father's ghost. Accomplished violinist Elmar Olveda in sits that playing chamber music will help a performer understand the audience. To immerse oneself in the music, understand
not just what it is to play the violin, but understand what the composer is doing, understand what's in the score. Including one of Rembrandt's last El Fortruth, we learn about the art collection of Edward Cecil Guinness. It's a way of showing you some of the major schools in European art, but also some of the greatest examples within those schools. Until next time, thank you for watching.
