‘The Accident,’ ‘Inheritance,’ ‘Good Bad Things’ Among Slamdance Film Festival Award Winners – Film News in Brief


'Love Me' received the juried feature film prize from Sundance Institute and Alfred P. Sloan Foundation’s joint Science-in-Film initiative.

According to the jury, “Love Me” was selected “for its ambitious and formally inventive portrayal of a post-human Earth in which two machine-learning ‘life forms’ search for the cure to loneliness in the digital rubble of civilization, and for its original direction and engaging performances.” Her other credits include “True Story,” “The Last Days of Ptolemy Gray,” “Star Wars: The Acolyte,” “Westworld” and the pilot of “Anansi Boys.” In 2019, she was selected for the inaugural class of ReFrame and was honored in Variety’s Inclusion Impact Report. Krystal has collaborated with an assortment of Hollywood’s top musicians, including a stint with Emmy-nominated composer Benjamin Wallfisch, two-time Oscar-winner Hans Zimmer and Grammy-winning artist Pharrell Williams, working as the supervising orchestrator of the Oscar-nominated film “Hidden Figures.” The score was nominated for a Grammy and a Golden Globe.
