Description

In 1978, Lory Smith had no idea that a routine job interview would land him a position working to promote what would soon become one of the most important independent film festivals in the U.S. The Sundance Film Festival attracts thousands of people each year; it has helped to elevate the status of independent film into a viable commercial force. This is a chronicle of the Festival from its humble beginnings to the present. In the early years, the setbacks & financial burdens nearly forced the festival out of existence. Yet, it somehow represented an idea that was too powerful to ignore -- movies shouldn’t be restricted to merely entertainment formulas. Here, 20 years into the festival, Smith takes a retrospective look at Sundance. Photos.
