2017 Tisch at Sundance

Tisch students and alumni continue to fuel the film industry, as evidenced by the 2017 Sundance Film Festival selections.

35% of the films and four projects in the New Frontier category at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival are affiliated with Tisch alumni. Of the films in competition, 13 are Tisch written, directed, or produced – the most in recent history.

For 24 years, NYU Tisch School of the Arts has had a presence at the Sundance Film Festival. We are proud to continue our support of independent and creative storytelling. Tisch’s presence at Sundance is made possible by philanthropic support from Amy P. & Frank M. Garrison and Molly & Sean Durkin.

Tisch's return to Sundance in 2017 is sure to be an exceptional year, particularly given the line up of films touched by our students and alumni.
