Sundance Film Festival comes to SF
Event WebsiteAbout
The nonprofit Sundance Institute has unveiled plans for the seven-day 2021 Sundance Film Festival, offered digitally via a custom-designed online platform alongside drive-ins, independent arthouses, and a network of local community partnerships.
The festival will showcase more than 70 feature films online and screen world premieres. The festival partners with the Roxie Theatre and Fort Mason FLIX to bring drive-in screenings in San Francisco.
According to Rick Norris, Roxie Program Director, "We are very excited to partner with the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. With this partnership we can offer the San Francisco Bay Area a chance to experience the Sundance Film Festival without having to travel to Park City. This is an opportunity for the curious to gain access not only to new films premiering with the Festival online (and with us here in San Francisco) but to an array of cultural conversations - during events and talks we will be programming as a Satellite Screen partner."
As a champion and curator of independent stories for the stage and screen, Sundance Institute provides and preserves the space for artists in film, theatre, film composing, and digital media to create and thrive. Robert Redford founded the Institute in 1981 to foster independence, risk-taking, and new voices in American film.
