The DC 48 Hour Film Project is back at the AFI Silver Theatre for an epic screening celebration on May 14, 15, and 17, 2026! 

Imagine this: local filmmakers just spent one insane weekend writing, shooting, and editing entire short films in only 48 hours. Now, it’s time to see that high-speed magic on the big screen! From side-splitting comedies to mind-bending sci-fi and nail-biting thrillers, every screening is a one-of-a-kind explosion of DC talent and raw creativity
