These SFFILM-Supported Films are Headed to Sundance 2024

Jan 18, 2024

Learn more about the filmmakers behind these SFFILM-supported titles

On Wednesday, December 6, 2024, the Sundance Institute revealed the slate of films that will premiere at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival. We’re excited to see SFFILM staff and supported filmmakers on the ground in-person in Park City, Utah.

Securing a spot in the Sundance Film Festival lineup is a challenging feat. Thanks to our SFFILM Makers programs, which include our FilmHouse Residency, the Documentary Film Fund, the Sloan Science in Cinema Filmmaker Fellowship, and the flagship SFFILM Rainin Grant — the largest granting body for independent narrative feature films in the US — SFFILM helps independent filmmakers breakthrough.

The 2024 Sundance Film Festival slate includes four fantastic SFFILM-supported features. These special stories being shown on a platform as large as Sundance empahsizes SFFILM’s role in providing independent storytellers with the necessary advisory services, workspace, and artist community for filmmakers to develop, complete, and showcase their work to the international film community.
