#FamilyTies
Tolstoy’s observation that “each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way” serves as an apt preface to a handful of films about ties that bind and ties that blind. Exploring the complex connective tissue between parents and children, brothers and sisters, filmmakers Kat Candler (Hellion), Craig Johnson (The Skeleton Twins), Hong Khaou (Lilting), Maya Vitkova (Viktoria), and Malik Vitthal (Imperial Dreams) offer family portraits shaded by the weight of the past, the burden of dreams, and the mysterious glue that holds us together. Moderated by John Nein (Sundance Film Festival).
Open to all credential holders and the general public on a space available basis.

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.
