In the marvelous, mountainous realm of Idaho, where the potatoes grow in abundance and the sunsets are a magical blend of pinks and oranges, there lived a zany bunch of kids, known as the Idaho Movie Marvels. These weren't your average kids, oh no! They had superpowers, but not the kind you're thinking of. They had the power to create, to imagine, to bring stories to life on screen. Their weapon of choice? Cameras! Their armor? Creativity! Their leader was a peculiar character named Whiskered Wally, a raccoon with an extraordinary talent for directing. He wore a beret, round glasses, and had a tiny script always clutched in his paw. Wally, with his bushy tail and cunning mind, used his knack for storytelling to help the Marvels weave cinematic wonders that were the delight of the entire state. The Idaho Movie Marvels consisted of kids from every corner of Idaho. Benny from Boise was the expert in special effects, creating fantastical explosions and magical rainbows with just a few clicks on his computer. Emma from Emmett was the queen of scripts, her pen dancing with words that could make you cry or laugh or gasp in suspense. And then there was Pocatello Paul, the master of music, his tunes leaving viewers humming long after they’d left the theater.

With every film they created, they made Idaho a little more magical, a place where dreams came alive and stories were told, one reel at a time.
