The Sinema Challenge is a test of creativity and skill, where 20 filmmakers had just 13 days, from September 10th to the 23rd, to create their own original horror films. This year, their cinematic nightmares will come to life on the big screen with a special premiere on November 7th at the iconic Plaza Theatre. During the premiere, we’ll present the Sinema Challenge Award, honoring the standout achievement among these rapid-fire productions. Each filmmaker will also move into their respective categories for the chance to win additional awards at the Buried Alive Film Festival.
