The Sundance Institute has served as a crucial catalyst to success for contemporary documentary filmmakers such as Oscar nominees Sara Dosa (Fire of Love) and Shaunak Sen (All That Breathes), Oscar winner Daniel Roher (Navalny), and MacArthur Fellows Nanfu Wang (Hooligan Sparrow) and Alex Rivera (The Infiltrators). The year-round support Sundance Institute provides — including granting, labs, and strategic industry mentorship from development to distribution — is dependent on the generosity of donors like you. [Donate Now]( [$25]( [$50]( [$100]( [$200]( [$500]( [$1,000]( As our world continues to battle global issues such as climate change, rebuilding communities post-pandemic, and racial and cultural prejudices, it is more imperative than ever to shine a light on these issues through documentary storytelling. At the 2023 Sundance Film Festival, we celebrated a number of DFP-supported works, including Bad Press, which highlights the recent censoring of free press by the Muscogee (Creek) Nation; Against the Tide, an exploration of brotherhood and the impact of pollution on fishing in Bombay’s Indigenous Koli community; and Smoke Sauna Sisterhood, an intimate portrayal of women’s lives shared through sauna-goers’ secrets. These vastly different films all open up new worlds to audiences and bring a diversity of intimate human experiences and global issues to light. Your generosity helps independent nonfiction filmmakers receive the support they need to succeed through the Documentary Film Program at Sundance Institute. To ensure we can continue this deeply important work, [please donate today](. Thank you for your partnership in uplifting independent documentary filmmakers and artists.
