    HOW IT WORKS

    Participants are invited to create a short film highlighting the sexiness of chocolate, not to exceed 1 minute in length. They submit to DSCS, and a panel of judges (artists/filmmakers tbd) will choose the top film. Judges ain’t eligible, don’t worry. All films will be screened via social media over the course of three weeks in January and potentially in other venues, including at our live performances of The Dirty Sexy Chocolate Show. 

     

    AWARD

    Winner takes all. Top film will be awarded $100 + $20 gift certificate (something local tbd) + 2 free reserved tix to our ridiculous and chocolatey show (total value ~$200). If winner is nowhere near any of our shows on the 2016 Northwest Tour, we’ll ship you $100 + a killer goodie bag from Missoula, MT +  some hand-made truffles from our friends at Posh Chocolat in Missoula (total value ~$200).
