The Sundance Institute Short Film Challenge is asking filmmakers to create and submit short films that celebrate the ingenuity and imagination that citizens employ to overcome real life issues brought on by extreme poverty. The following five films were commissioned to launch an invitation to filmmakers everywhere to submit their work for review. They were produced with grants from the Sundance Institute and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and are a great example of the type of work we are looking for. Five winning filmmakers will receive $10,000 in prize money and travel to see their work screened at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. Users can submit their films through July 1, 2014. There’s no fee to apply; more information can be found at sundance.org/anotheryou
