The Sundance Institute today announced the films selected for the
Short Film Program at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival, taking place January 20-30, 2005, in Park City, Utah. The Festival selected 82 short films -- dramatic, documentary, and animated -- from a total of 3887 submissions from U.S. and international filmmakers. In addition to screening at the Festival in Park City, many of the short films will be available free-of-charge to film at the
Sundance Online Film Festival starting January 20, for five months following the close of the Festival.
According to the release issued by the Festival, "This year's short films take all the chances and push boundaries. From a
compelling look at a former child star to a life lesson in infidelity; a satirical look at spelling bees and
the conflict in the West Bank retold as West Side Story; a personal story about a young Inuit man who attempts to bond with his father; and the story of a love affair lasting 60 years -- this collection of U.S. short films captivate the viewer as never before."
