Sundance

My daughter has worked at the Sundance Film Festival for 4 years. Here she met the love of her life, thank you Robert Redford. While Robert Redford has sold the venue, and is no longer involved as the owner, the film festival still pays homage to the great actor.

This year the festival dates are January 20th – January 30th.

Driving to Sundance is a beautiful trek through the mountains.

Then you arrive at the venue.

As many as 100,000 will visit the Festival, which has multiple sites in the area with attendees transported via bus. Some pictures of the Sundance site.

Theater
One of several buildings for creatives to work in. Sundance has summer programs for rising young filmmakers.

In the main building is a hall with pictures of many important actors, dancers, and directors – recognize anyone??

The building also houses a restaurant and take out area..

Gift Shop

T shirt anyone?

Next: Park City

Sundance 2018, 2019, 2020..

This is the third year my daughter has worked at the Sundance Film Festival. While she hasn’t met or caught a picture of Robert Redford, she did get this:

Hillary listening to a question and involved in questions from the panel.

Our former First Lady, Junior Senator from New York, and Secretary of State, was promoting a documentary regarding she and her family. It will be on Hulu in March.

In further conversations with my daughter another film which appeared at Sundance 2017 was discussed, Icarus. What an eye opener. It won Best Documentary at the 90th Academy Awards. It is a must see.

Thanks, Robert Redford for your great work in creating this Festival and giving my daughter three years of amazing opportunities.
