BZ48H is a film contest for short films that challenges artists and filmmakers: to make a short film in just 48 hours, from concept to post-production. The main goal is to show Bolzano through their films, bringing out its soul and atmosphere. The challenge is open to everyone: professionals, students and amateurs, both local and from other cities.

BZ48H #10 will start on Friday 25 September 2026 and end on Sunday 27 September 2026.

Short films must be written, shot and post-produced within 48 hours and have a maximum running time of 8 minutes (excluding opening and closing credits).
