    Earlier than this month, the final time I went to Sundance in individual was January 2020. I clearly keep in mind — and can always remember — standing within the foyer of the competition’s headquarters and studying information experiences in regards to the first case of a novel coronavirus being present in the US; Donald Trump insisted that he had it “fully beneath management,” so I naturally spent the remainder of the competition questioning if we’d all be useless earlier than any of the movies that premiered there noticed the sunshine of the day (“Save Yourselves!” certainly). To go by the statistics, a few of us in all probability had been. It didn’t happen to me that one of many folks sitting subsequent to me throughout “Palm Springs” or “By no means Hardly ever Typically At all times” may already have COVID, principally as a result of I didn’t need it to, however when the lights went down for “Minari” — my final screening of the fest — I keep in mind pondering “this higher be actually fucking good, as a result of it seems like issues are about to get actually fucking dangerous.”

    Spoiler alert: It was, and so they did. 

    In hindsight, that may have been the one time within the temporary historical past of the medium when cinema was really in a extra dire state of disaster than folks realized on the time, because the “sky is falling” vibe that streamers had already baked into the Sundance expertise was about to be compounded by a really completely different type of menace. If Sundance’s daring and laudable choice to pivot to a digital mannequin the next yr reasonably than scrap the competition altogether spoke to its irreplaceable perform within the indie movie ecosystem, the mad scramble to remain afloat had the unintended impact of codifying how the competition’s power had modified because the center had fallen out of the American movie enterprise — in some unspecified time in the future alongside the best way, Sundance model had change into disaster (regardless that each variations of “Our Model Is Disaster” had premiered elsewhere).

    Regardless of the unimaginable work that new competition heads Eugene Hernandez and Kim Yutani have carried out to protect Sundance’s vitality whereas steeling it towards the long run, that model has solely been additional bolstered over the previous few years. Not solely have indie movies change into even tougher to finance, and even tougher to promote, they’ve additionally change into too costly to premiere in Park Metropolis, prompting the entire competition to discover a new house for the primary time because it moved up the mountains from Salt Lake in 1981.

    Sundance may be a bit too well-known for its dependable slate of crowd-pleasing charms (which are inclined to overshadow the extra radical and selectively curated movies that fill out the competition’s sidebars), however essentially the most uplifting factor I noticed from this yr’s lineup is a documentary a couple of man dying from colon most cancers. Certain, that’s a high-quality testomony to the late topic of “André Is an Fool,” whose allure and perspective go away you desirous to benefit from your personal life (even when meaning having a digicam inserted up your ass each few years), however it’s additionally a telling reflection of a Sundance the place even the feel-good movies took pains to warning us that nothing lasts without end.

    As somebody who by the way began overlaying Sundance the identical yr that KC Inexperienced drew his well-known “This Is Fantastic” canine, it felt somewhat on the nostril that the movie trade was actually on hearth after I lastly made it again to Utah in individual final week. The place was identical to I’d left it, the one distinction being that nobody might put down their cellphone and fake that issues had been OK — not solely as a result of the entire traditional hoopla was dampened by the power of displaying as much as work on a TV present that’s already been cancelled, but in addition as a result of the films themselves wouldn’t allow us to decrease our guards.
