Indigenous Works at Sundance Film Festival: Virtual Festival 2022

Sundance announced on Wednesday, Jan. 5, 2022, that this year's hybrid Sundance Film Festival will out of necessity be changed to virtual.

At the 2022 Sundance Film Festival, we are honored to have 15 projects by Indigenous artists screening. From immersive experiences to short films, the stories that will be presented in January continue to highlight Indigeniety in unique and powerful ways.

Over the last couple of years we, as a community, have had to adapt the way that we have produced, consumed, and celebrated films. However, even as our methods have shifted, our passion and commitment to groundbreaking art endures — especially the Sundance Institute’s essential support of Indigenous artists, storytellers, and filmmakers.

On top of the projects premiering at the Fest, the Indigenous Program is proud to be hosting and highlighting its Fellows attending the festival and whose film projects are being supported in their development. The program will announce the 2022 Merata Mita Fellow at this year’s Festival as well
