Yesterday, CEO Amanda Kelso and festival director Eugene Hernandez sent a letter to the indie film community stating that Sundance will continue as planned despite the fires burning in Los Angeles. “Our community has a history of coming together when passion and perseverance are needed most, drawing strength from the deep bonds that make us so resilient,” they wrote. “Right now, we may mourn, but we also know it is important to carry on.”
