Where would I be without Sundance? I’ve premiered two films there, attended two labs, met folks who ended up being important collaborators there, and made so many memories. The festival and surrounding community was instrumental in launching my career, from premiering my short The Thing in 2012– which kicked off my journey towards working on Transparent— premiering Adam in 2019, attending Sundance Honk Kong, and most recently developing a new feature film in their FilmTwo feature lab. This summer, @sundanceorg is celebrating 40 years of supporting independent artists. As a nonprofit, they’ve been able to offer their vital artist programs because of the generosity of people who understand the impact that storytelling can have on our culture and the importance of diverse voices. If you are able, please consider donating now to help the next generation of independent storytellers via sundance.org/40th. #Sundance40th
