A letter to the filmmakers
IndieWire's Eugene Hernandez has sage advice for filmmakers, those who got into Sundance and those who didn't.

For those who got in, the work involves navigating the choppy waters of film-distribution deals - in a market that, Hernandez says, "probably won't be as robust for big on-site acquisitions" as past years.
For those who didn't get in - a larger group, considering some 3,600 films were submitted for 118 slots - Hernandez says it's time to start working the festival circuit, to get their films some attention at places that don't have snow and crowded streets.
