LIFT seeks proposals for the creation of high-quality short films (five minutes or less) that feature stories of Hoosiers who have a vision for how to strengthen their communities and are working to do so. Selected filmmakers will receive a $5,000 stipend to produce films that are both uplifting and rooted in authentic Hoosier experiences. Our goal is to support the documentation and distribution of compelling, achievable Hoosier stories that surprise, delight, inspire, and elevate the individuals and communities working to make Indiana a strong, vibrant place.
