A 92-minute theatrical program of 7 short films selected from the 2021 Festival, considered the premier showcase for short films and the launch-pad for prominent filmmakers.

The 2021 Sundance Film Festival Short Film Tour is a 92-minute theatrical program of 7 short films selected from the 2021 Festival, widely considered the premier showcase for short films and the launch-pad for many now-prominent independent filmmakers for close to 40 years. Including fiction, documentary and animation from around the world, the 2021 program offers new audiences a taste of what the Festival offers.

Fueled by artistic expression and limited only by their runtime, short films transcend traditional storytelling.  The Festival’s Short Film Program has long been established as a place to discover talented directors, such as past alums Wes Anderson, Damien Chazell, Lake Bell, Spike Jonze, Paul Thomas Anderson, Dee Rees, Taika Waititi, Rashaad Ernesto Green, Cary Joji Fukunaga, Debra Granik, Todd Haynes, Lynne Ramsay, Andrea Arnold, and many others.
