Institute History
Description
Lou Reed will make his Festival directorial debut, screening his short film, Red Shirley. The 28-minute film is a portrait of the filmmaker's 100-year-old activist, unionist, cousin, an articulate, living historical individual. Filmed in New York’s Chelsea Garment Worker Project and photographed by portraitist Ralph Gibson, Red Shirley is an example of how “the west was won.”
Reed will be in attendance for the Q&A session immediately following the film.

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.
