I saw this film at the DGA in Los Angeles, and was truly intrigued by it. It was beautifully shot, and edited. I was drawn in by the story and the characters. I highly recommend it to anyone who considers themselves a filmmaker, and well as anyone who just has a passion for film.

But... but your movie was so much BETTER than that!
There you are, rising from your seat as the house lights come up, dumbstruck with jealousy and outrage at the film you just finished watching. "How," you ask in shock and incomprehension, "did THAT film get into Sundance when mine did not?"

Yes, I've been in that seat too. I recommend reading an article by a two time Sundance alumni, who, like you, was rejected this year by the most dreamed-of, hoped-for, and disappointed-by festival in the country...
