The Sundance Film Festival is the flagship public program of Sundance Institute. Throughout the year, the majority of the Institute's resources support independent artists around the world as they make and develop new work through access to Labs, direct grants, fellowships, residencies, and other strategic and tactical support. "This year, we look forward to celebrating this generation’s most innovative storytellers as they share their work across a wide range of genres and forms," said Sundance Institute founder and president Robert Redford. "These artists have provided a light through the darkest of times, and we look forward to welcoming their unique visions out into the world and experiencing them together."
