Sundance Film Festival, USA

Sundance Film Festival, held each year in Park City, Utah, is a must-see winter event. The festival was founded to recognize new developments in the film industry that have been influenced by American and international filmmakers. The festival is the largest independent film festival in the United States, attracting millions of visitors, artists, and filmmakers. Sterling Van Wagenen, founded in 1978 by Robert Redford, is now one of Park City's most popular activities. Competition among filmmakers is part of the celebration, but there are also non-competitive sessions.

For its annual program of drama, documentary, and short films; New Frontier films, performances, exhibitions, and virtual reality experiences; episodic storytelling; lively filmmaker conversations and panel discussions; and dynamic music events, the Sundance Film Festival brings together the most inventive storytellers and the most daring audiences. Since 1985, hundreds of films that were premiered at the Festival have gone on to win awards and find audiences all over the world that are hungry for new ideas and perspectives.

Sundance Institute, a nonprofit, offers and protects the space for independent artists to produce and exhibit new, authentic work. The Robert Redford Institute is a renowned international resource for thousands of artists. It was established in the mountains of Sundance, Utah, in 1981. The Institute works to expand the influence of independent storytelling around the world through its Sundance Film Festival and artistic development programs for film, theater, and new media artists.
