2021 Sundance Insitute | Sandbox Fund

The Sundance Institute | Sandbox Fund aims to elevate the voices of independent artists working at the intersection of science and nonfiction storytelling as they produce and promote work and discourse that highlights the overlap of science and art.

The eight selected project teams will receive unrestricted and non-recoupable grants totaling $255,000. The filmmakers will also be provided with tailored project support and be a part of Sundance Institute’s year-round continuum of support, with year round opportunities to connect with Sundance’s network of alumni and creative advisors and Sandbox Films’s roster of renowned scientists.

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.
