For the second year in a row, Indy Shorts, one of the world’s premier Oscar-qualifying film festivals, will host a dedicated MPI showcase featuring the latest films from MPI’s filmmaker labs. Following the success of last year’s program, this year’s block includes Remnants; Skyward: The Sport Rocketry Revolution; Poisoned Skies; Shoot, Shovel, and Shut Up; and The One Minute Problem.

Developed through MPI’s Documentary Storytelling Workshop, Short Film Lab, and Production Lab, these films reflect the range of stories being created by MPI filmmakers. Together, they explore themes including innovation, resilience, history, entrepreneurship, and individual liberty while showcasing the immersive training, mentorship, and hands-on production experience that define MPI’s filmmaker programs.

Purchase tickets here to join MPI senior vice president Lana Link and the MPI filmmakers behind each film in person on July 25 at 12:15 p.m. Can’t make it to Indianapolis? All five films will also be available to stream online through the festival from July 21 at 12:00 p.m. through July 26 at 11:59 p.m. Learn more and purchase streaming access here.
