This shocking statistic had us wondering how women fare behind the camera in independent film. Learn about a landmark study and see what comes up when the world’s foremost researcher on women and media, USC’s force of nature, Professor Stacy Smith, discusses her fascinating findings with another force of nature, Academy Award–winning Producer Cathy Schulman.

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.
