SANDANCE, The Desert of the Reel. Historical Documentary

By Emcye Edwards. An independent filmmaker illuminates North America's most compelling international film festival. Documentary explores how this brainchild of Sonny Bono - now in it's 22nd year - offers such an amazing range of screenings, symposiums, parties, galas and constant shop-talk every year, shared amongst filmmakers and film-lovers at the Palm Springs International Film Festival. As a run-up to the Golden Globes and Academy Awards, this is the requisite festival for many award contenders and voting members of the Academy. And a rare opportunity for emerging and established filmmakers around the globe to learn from one another in the San Jacinto Mountains' eye-popping, super-electric and congenial atmosphere.
