Within them we saw a wave of truly original and outrageously distinctive films united by their uncompromised spirit.” The fact that we received 1,200 more submissions in this category than last year speaks to that. Trevor Groth, Director of Programming for the Sundance Film Festival, said, “As technology allows greater access to short films as well as filmmaking tools, an increasing number of people are turning to short filmmaking as a form of expression and an opportunity to explore creative freedom. The Festival will be January 19 through 29 in Park City, Salt Lake City, Ogden and Sundance, Utah. This year’s Short Film program is comprised of 64 short films selected from a record 7,675 submissions, up 16% over submissions for the 2011 Festival.
