The Sundance 2006 Timetable and Film Descriptions have been posted on the Sundance website. We’re a little more than a month away right now, so the excitement is building.
There are several films I’m already looking forward to … First, a film I would have like to have made … THE GIANT BUDDHAS. In February 2001, six months before the attacks on the Twin Towers, the Taliban issued a decree calling for the destruction of all non-Islamic-related statues in Afghanistan. A pair of enormous stone Buddhas, hewn from the side of a cliff in the Bamiyan Valley more than 1,600 years ago, was blown to bits by Islamic fundamentalists.
Another film, FLANNEL PAJAMAS because a former student who works at SUBVOYANT in NYC, helped with trailers and such for director Jeff Lipsky. I’m hoping to line up a podcast with Lipsky within the next couple of days.
Of course, I love the SHORTS PROGRAM, with the animation shorts being a clear favorite. What else would you expect from someone who teaches Maya?
