The Sundance Institute has announced today that 10 short films have been selected to screen over 10 days on the iTunes Store. They’re brought to iTunes by Shorts International.
All 10 films will be available as free downloads through iTunes stores in the US, UK and Canada now through Jan. 25. The 2009 Sundance Film Festival runs January 15-25 in Park City, Salt Lake City, Ogden, and Sundance, Utah.
“We are thrilled to be able to highlight a selection of short films from this year’s program free online on the iTunes Store for those who can’t make it to the Festival,” says Trevor Groth, Sundance Film Festival Senior Programmer. “The 10/10 films offer a sample of the diversity and originality of the 2009 Sundance Film Festival shorts program.”
The Festival’s full Short Film Program comprises a record 96 short films from 5,632 submissions, from U.S. and International filmmakers. At the Festival, short films screen in Festival theatres prior to a feature film or as part of one of the Festival’s eight short film programs. During the Festival, a Short Film Jury awards prizes based on outstanding achievement and merit in U.S. and International Short Filmmaking.
The 2009 Short Film Program Awards Ceremony will be held Tuesday, Jan. 20.
