2022 Sundance/Sandbox Fund recipient highlight.... UNTITLED THWAITES FILM Status: Development Director: Emelie Mahdavian (BITTERBRUSH) Producers: John D. Sutter (@jdsutter ), Emelie Mahdavian Synopsis: How do you watch the climate crisis unfold without losing hope? Untitled Thwaites Film tells the story of a small, female-led research team’s last trip to a vulnerable Antarctic ice sheet. The Sundance Institute Sandbox Fund is an open-call grant program with support given directly to independent filmmakers to cover development, production or finishing costs, with no strings attached, and is separate from our main productions at Sandbox Films. Experimental by design, the program allows us to take risks, to nurture bold ideas, to uncover new voices, and together with artists, to re-imagine science documentary.
