Sundance Film Festival awards: The complete list
Liz Garbus and Heidi Ewing have both been acclaimed for their documentary films, but that was no guarantee they’d actually get to direct their first narrative features, which both premiered at Sundance 2020.
The audience award for U.S. documentary went to Netflix’s “Crip Camp,” directed by Nicole Newnham and Jim Lebrecht. In accepting the award, Lebrecht described the film as a love letter to the disabled community, saying “I’m so proud to be up here and proud to be part of this community I love so much.”
“Sundance was founded on the idea that art can not only entertain, it can convince, discredit, agitate and empower,” said Keri Putnam, director of the Sundance Institute, in her opening remarks. “In volatile times like these, democracy and storytelling aren’t separate, they’re inextricably linked.”
