In October 2025 we ran the first ever Big Screen Hack — a 24-hour AI filmmaker competition with an open call. 20+ films submitted, 4 prize winners, judged on stage at the BFI Southbank. The audience and the industry showed up. This is the night that proved the format.
Industry jury, audience in the room, all four winners revealed on stage at the BFI. Click any poster to watch the film.

Part two lands in Cannes festival week — our Big Screen Hack × RecDek House Villa Party on Sun 17 May and the Cinéum stage screening on Mon 18 May. See the full programme →
