Tonight, Thursday, January 21, sees the kickoff for the 2016 Sundance Film Festival, for which I’m a Documentary Programming Associate. For that reason, w(n)td will be on hiatus for the duration of the festival, which runs through Sunday, January 31, with normal daily weekday posting to resume on Monday, February 1.
Follow me on Twitter, to keep up with Sundance, and also follow my Sundance filmmaker class of 2016 Twitter list to experience the festival through the eyes of this year’s filmmakers.
