PARK CITY, Utah
The Sundance Film Festival will
soon become more child friendly.
Organizers announced plans Thursday
to debut a program of independent films aimed at young audiences at the
festival next month.
The Sundance Kids program will
feature the world premiere of "Ernest and Celestine," a film about a
mouse who forms an unlikely bond with a bear, and the U.S. premiere
of "Zip & Zap and the Marble Gang," a movie about twin brothers
who uncover a hidden secret at school.
Festival director John Cooper told
The Salt Lake Tribune the new program is designed to give children eight and
older an appreciation for independent film.
Sundance already conducts outreach programs for high school
and college students.
The 2014 Sundance festival runs
Jan. 16-24 with films, documentaries and shorts in Park
City, Salt Lake
City, Ogden
and at the Sundance Resort.
