June 5th-7th 3rd Annual Seattle International Film Festival (SIFF) Superfly Filmmaking Experience Expanding Cinema through Education empowers youth to work collaboratively, communicate their ideas, exercise their potential, and take action in their communities. This goal is embodied in the SuperFly Program where young filmmakers are asked to comment on their world using multimedia and digital tools. In SIFF's continued partnership with Longhouse Media, 50 young filmmakers will be placed in five teams and given a script co-written written by SuperFly alumni and Tulalip Tribal Members Aaron and Derek Jones. The script will be an original work from an excerpt of Sherman Alexies's award-winning book, "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian." The teams will have less than two days to storyboard, shoot, and edit their films, which will then premiere four hours later at the FutureWave Shorts program screening. SuperFly premieres and kicks off SIFF 2008 FutureWave Shorts June 7 at 4:00pm at the Egyptian Theatre.
