The New School hosts a conversation that explores storytelling forms that have impact beyond the screen. We'll discuss how both creative end products and the act of creation itself can address issues of social justice and inclusion. Faculty across various fields will share practices and illustrative examples from their work and invite attendees to consider using experimental techniques to conduct social inquiry and probe how nonconventional filmmaking can empower others. Presented by The New School

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.
