Sundance Film Festival 2025 Features 88 Films from 33 Countries

The 2025 Sundance Film Festival is set to begin in Park City, Utah, with a lineup featuring 88 feature-length films from 33 countries, including numerous directorial debuts. Notable films include Hailey Gates’s 'Atropia,' Mark Anthony Green's horror film 'Opus' starring Ayo Edebiri, and Max Walker-Silverman’s 'Rebuilding,' which tackles themes of recovery post-wildfire. The festival continues to be a platform for groundbreaking independent cinema, showcasing films that often achieve cult status over time. This year's festival, however, is anticipated to have a more muted buzz, potentially due to ongoing California wildfires affecting the region. Despite this, many celebrity guests are expected to attend, underscoring the festival's significance in the film industry. Attendees are eager to discover new talents and films that might become breakout hits.
