The 2012 intake doubles the amount of films and filmmakers the Institute is supporting in the post-production phase.

“Sundance Institute Labs provide a haven for filmmakers to work through challenges and take risks in their work with the support of our staff and creative advisors,” Sundance Institute executive director Keri Putnam said.

“We are encouraged that nearly every film team that has participated in a DFP Lab since 2006 has completed their film and launched it to audiences.”

Creative advisors will join fellows at the labs, which run from Jun 22-30 and Jul 6-14.

The Documentary Film Program celebrates its tenth anniversary this year and since inception has awarded grants to more than 300 documentary filmmakers in 61 countries.
