Dal 19 al 29 gennaio, avrà luogo la 33esima edizione del celebre Sundance film festival, patrocinato da Robert Redford, mai internazionale e attento alle tematiche ambientali come quest’anno.
Tra i partecipanti molti volti noti del panorama del cinema indipendente (Gillian Robespierre, Alex Ross Perry e Michael Larnell), star ormai affermate che si prestano piacevolmente a produzioni non di massa (Parker Posey, Michael Cera e Elizabeth Olsen) e anche tanti documentari che potrebbero essere in corsa per gli Oscar 2017.
