Sundance 2025: Will Indie Box Office Revival Spur Dealmaking?
The independent film community, settling into Park City at the Sundance Film Festival with a new lineup, can celebrate a box office turnaround in 2024.
Lia Buman worked on Together as well and is debuting satire Magic Farm, the second film from El Planeta director Amalia Ulman, and Eva Victor’s Sorry, Baby, with Barry Jenkins a producer.
