We are very proud to announce the winners of the 2009 Big Screen Showcase. As is our tradition, all the winners under age 20 will be sent to the youth division of the Chicago International Film Festival next April. We will make every attempt to distribute all the movies to other festivals that invite us and to venues such as Access Humboldt.

Special thanks to our 2009 keynote speaker, David Scheerer for his great motivational talk and for his further assistance with handing out the winner's statuettes and certificates.
