Festival Director John Cooper, Sundance Institute Executive Director Keri Putnam, and President and Founder of Sundance Institute Robert Redford at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival Day One Press Conference. (c) 2016 by Calvin Knight.
I am beyond thrilled to say that I have a press credential to cover the 2022 Sundance Film Festival online. Next year it is held from January 20 to 30, 2022 in Park City, Utah, but they also have an extensive virtual festival. This is the mother of all independent film festivals, and holds a very special place in my heart. Attendance is open to all, visit sundance.org for more information, and to obtain tickets. I will be covering it here, and also my other media outlets like the Los Angeles Jewish Journal online edition, etc. So exciting!
From the sundance.org website: "The Sundance Film Festival is the ultimate gathering of original storytellers and audiences seeking new voices and fresh perspectives. Our annual program includes dramatic and documentary features and short films; series and episodic content; and New Frontier, showcasing emerging media in the form of multimedia installations, performances, and films. We also host daily filmmaker conversations, panel discussions, and live music events. Since 1985, hundreds of films launched at the Festival have gone on to gain critical acclaim and reach new audiences worldwide."
