D. Kohl Glass, director of The Promethean and Der Ostwind, sends the following: I found out some great news today. My friend and former BYU student Jared Hess got his film Napoleon Dynamite accepted to The Sundance Film festival.
The feature film is based off of a short film Jared made titled Peluca which showed at Slamdance last year. The film is a comedy about a socially inept youth growing up in rural Idaho. They shot Napoleon this last summer in Preston Idaho and shortly afterward I got to see their very first rough cut and I thought it was hilarious. If you are going to Sundance I highly recommend you see this one! (Kohl is one of my former students at MCC.)
