During the festival the authors of seven 12-minute screenplays will be selected to come to New Mexico to make their movies using digital equipment. The Festival takes place July 21 to 29.

Lily Lin, BitTorrents director of communications , confirmed the deal and said:

the collaboration with the film institute and Shootout is indicative of BitTorrent’s desire to continue making the content of independent artists available while also moving toward partnerships with large motion picture studios.
