Seating capacity will be limited based on maintaining 6ft distancing between attendees and adhering to all applicable national, state and local regulations. FilmScene has developed a detailed plan for presenting films safely in theater including mandatory mask policies and extensive cleaning and safety protocols.
FilmScene has worked closely with the programming team at Sundance Film Festival to curate a selection of films that will speak to the interests of our audience, but also encourage viewers to explore something new and unexpected. In collaboration with the Festival, films have been hand picked based on their themes, origins or messages. The FilmScene team will be going on this curatorial journey with our audience - discovering new voices, welcoming different ideas, and considering diverse perspectives right alongside our patrons.
All films selected for the Sundance Film Festival will be available in an online portal with access available directly from the Festival through paid admission. Additional beyond film content will be available through the Festival Village platform, a free-for-all portal to a wide range of events, programming, and offerings to complement and enrich the official program.
