Creativity and personal expression once consigned to the margins gradually evolved into a diverse movement of unprecedented vitality and popularity. But where is the independent film movement right now? How can it maintain creative energy and freedom? Given the challenges, what needs to change in order to preserve the range of voices and aesthetics that make this a thriving component of our culture?

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
