A Real Pain, Krazy House, 2024 Native Forum: Day 3 Concludes with Inspiring Talks and Star-Studded Premieres
|
Day three was full of excitement in the snow and salted streets. We devoured world premieres like Jesse Eisenberg’s A Real Pain, Steffen Haars and Flip van der Kuil’s Krazy House, and Esteban Arango’s Ponyboi, which received a standing ovation. André Holland (Exhibiting Forgiveness) and Steven Soderbergh (Presence) brought the energy to Filmmaker Lodge during yesterday’s Cinema Café presented by Audible as the two directors shared a casual conversation about the way they approach their crafts and passions.
“I’m most excited about potential. There are filmmakers here for the first time that in the next 10 days, they’ve got something that’s going to pop…that’s what excites me,” Soderbergh said during yesterday’s Cinema Café. “Somebody out there right now is making something that’s going to blow us away and I can’t wait. Seeing great work makes me want to work.”
Many of the next generations of filmmakers that Soderbergh is excited about were at the annual Native Forum where the artists and community discussed how the industry can continue to uplift Indigenous storytellers. At the forum, Adam Piron, Director of Sundance Institute’s Indigenous Program, announced that Libby Hakaraia and Tazbah Rose Chavez will be the recipients of the Merata Mita Fellowship and the Inaugural
Graton Fellowship. "I am honored to be the inaugural recipient of the Graton Fellowship, created to support California Indigenous filmmakers," Chavez said at the forum. "As a citizen of the Bishop Paiute Tribe, I am grateful to Chairman Greg Sarris, Graton Rancheria, and the Sundance Institute for investing in California Native artists and for their generous support of me and future recipients."
