The Gotham Film & Media Institute has revealed their complete list of nominations for the 2023 Gotham Awards and we're thrilled to see several familiar faces and projects supported by Sundance Institute.
Sundance Institute and The Gotham Film & Media Institute are unique yet similar - both organizations work vigorously year-round to champion independent voices from all corners of the world through various programs and initiatives. So to see these artists and projects being uplifted so prestigiously is exciting and invigorating.
