Sundance 2011: I hear the echo in my mind

The echoes of Sundance are still lingering at the edge of my mind.  Here and there I’m reminded of the hum of the social interactions and overheard conversations at shuttle stops, waitlist lines and irish pubs.  Sundance 2k11 is one that won’t be soon forgotten.  This year was a collection of amazing shorts and the premiere of Miranda July’s second full length film, the Future. I wish that we were able to get into all the films and soak it all in but unfortunately we don’t yet have the hook up.  So for now, here’s a list of short films we actually got to see that were noteworthy.  I hope you’ll all be able to view these someday and be able to add it to your lists of inspirations.
