Independent films are the products of a time and a place in history. They are a means of responding to mitigating, observing, and questioning the complexities of the world around us. This panel will consider how independent films carry political resonance, measure the mood and ideation of society, and contribute to our understanding of the conflicting issues of politics, social justice and equality, gender, sexuality, culture, and ethnicity in America.

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.
