It's over! Our unofficial 2023 jury awards at Sundance Film Festival

This is an event where innovative filmmaking techniques and extreme elevation can leave your breathless. Where the "Sundance Sickness" represents the unshakeable itch to be at all of the parties at the same time as well as the inevitable viral infection which will afflict your body due to handshakes while chatting up with strangers who are in noisy spaces, even if you're not sleeping.
