This is a pretty random post to those out of the know, but there is a distinct reason why everyone needs to care about this piece of information.
Out of the Sundance Director and Screenwriter Labs have come many a great film. Tarantino's Resivior Dogs, P.T.A's Hard Eight, Ryan Fleck's Half Nelson, Darren Aronofsky's Requiem For A Dream, and John Cameron Mitchell's Hedwig and The Angry Inch.
