Proving to be one of Rushes' most popular screenings, straight 8 challenges filmmakers to shoot on one three-minute, twenty-second cartridge of super 8mm film. No editing is allowed - they simply shoot each shot in order! The cartridge containing the film must be handed over exposed but undeveloped, along with a separate and original soundtrack. The ultimate twist is that the filmmakers don't see their film until it screens in front of a huge audience.
