The Slamdance Film Festival is back again for its 29th year and is ready to celebrate the independent film community once again.
Known for showcasing raw and innovative filmmaking by filmmakers for filmmakers, Slamdance is ready to feature some of the best and brightest young creators’ shorts and feature debuts while providing the filmmaking community across the world with an experience that is unlike any other indie film fest.
This year, Slamdance is continuing to honor and support independent filmmaking and unconventional storytelling through the Unstoppable program in partnership with the University of Utah.
Since 2021, the Unstoppable program, founded by Juliet Romeo, Asha Chai-Chang, Gabriel Cordell, Chris Furbee, Steve Way, Peter Baxter, and Taylor Miller, has showcased new films by creators with visible and non-visible disabilities. The program has been a key launching point for filmmakers, including 2021 alumni Doug Roland whose Unstoppable short film Feeling Through was nominated for an Academy Award.
