About the Film
The Made in Utah: Film Showcase is the exciting next iteration of the annual Filmmaker’s Showcase that was created by local filmmaker Jill Orschel in 2005. The Film Showcase is designed to celebrate exceptional short films created by local filmmakers, offering a platform to showcase Utah’s unique voices, talent, and creativity. Our goal is to foster connections between filmmakers and audiences, creating an environment where collaboration and creativity can thrive.
