The DFP Team Shares 18 Sundance-Supported Nonfiction Projects Not to Miss This Fall
08/10/2024
What does it take to move the needle through art? An original, singular vision that broadens our minds and deepens our understanding of the world. Here, we believe in independent filmmakers who encourage us to look at things in fresh ways, and we are privileged to support some of the most dynamic storytellers across the globe who are doing so with bold documentaries. Through our Documentary Film Program, our dedicated team champions nonfiction storytellers through many levels of development with our Documentary Fund, Documentary Film Producers Track, and labs and intensives.
We love having the opportunity to uplift films as they develop from concept to post-production to inciting awe in theaters or at home. This fall, a sizable collection of 18 Sundance Institute-supported true stories are reaching wider audiences through festivals, theatrical releases, TV broadcast premieres, and even a podcast. Catch all the phenomenal works, including Black Box Diaries, a gripping film about a Japanese journalist investigating her own sexual assault; The Body Politic, a powerful account of the mayor of Baltimore's fight to reform the violent city; and Sabbath Queen, the liberating story of an Orthodox rabbi who becomes a drag queen. Below, find a complete list of the season's riveting nonfiction works with connections to the Institute and hear from our team members about select projects.
