The Sundance Film Festival brings the most original storytellers together with the most adventurous audiences for its annual program of dramatic and documentary films, shorts, New Frontier films, installations, performances, panel discussions, and dynamic music events. Since 1985, hundreds of films launched at the Festival have gained critical recognition, received commercial distribution, and reached worldwide audiences eager for fresh perspectives and new voices.

    Each Labor Day weekend, the tiny mountain village of Telluride, Colorado triples in size. Swells of passionate film enthusiasts flood the town for four days of total cinematic immersion, embarking on a viewing odyssey, blissfully spending entire days in flickering dark rooms. With only an appreciation of celluloid to guide them, these devotees flock to the show, year after year. This also seems cool and a fun thing to do, lots of people go out each year so it must be fun as well.

  30. Sharing My Opinion On things are very different. I Celebrate all kinds of festivals and parade events. Like the Gay & Lesbian Pride Festival Even that Runs through atlanta Makes me feel wonderful because the fact that people are coming out to share their feelings with one another is also a great thing. I don't judge and i see them as people, no matter the Ethnicity, gender, etc. all people were created equally, why treat them like their some type of Alien from outer space? ANOTHER Festivals im inlove with is the National Black Arts Festival, Bringing all types of African American artists of Music to join in the festival and Create Music like no other, it's a Excellent festival to see because it expresses the feelings of people in a way of music and openly sharing their abilities of art in music.
