Fifth contest edition in which 8 short movies are written, shot and edited within 72 hours. Primary goal, besides promoting the city of The Hague, was to use 'outbreak' as the main topic.

'Reset' takes us on an assault mission with an assassin, only to have his memory wiped afterwards. In 'Shift' a simple, average day man comes to conflict with his own mirror image. 'De Bak In' shows how a couple is forced to appreciate each other again. 'Jenny' tells the story of a construction worker who turns himself into a drag queen at night. In the musical 'Tornado' we witness the tragic incident where a man is separated from his love and makes a shocking decision. 'Demon' takes place in a taxi as the driver starts learning that nobody is what they seem to look like at first. 'Gezien' is all about being ignored by your adult environment, only to be noticed by your childhood again. Finally the meta-short 'OutBreak' in which a hip-hop artist has to make a new rap song and corresponding video clip within 48 hours and asks a friend for help.—Arjen Rooseboom
