Kirk and Indra have a long chat with Nisse Eimers, a Dutch filmmaker and frequent 48 Hour Film Project participant. They go into the depths of why people participate in the 48HFP. Do the awards really matter? How does a competitive nature fit into the equation? They also dissect why it seems that the Dutch 48 Hour filmmakers are always making their films at such a high level compared to other countries... along with France of course. And it's not necessarily what you might think! They also discuss the importance of music in film and how it completes the magic.
