Receiving its online premiere today here at Filmmaker is Iva Gocheva‘s haunting short film, Sunday, an impressionistic portrait of a young Bulgarian woman living in New York who is grappling with all the various impacts — emotional and existential — of her expired visa.

With filmmaking and digital technology being so ubiquitous today, it becomes almost difficult to decide the difference between amateur stuff and real aspiring artists. Those budding filmmakers need not look further than the Brooklyn Film Festival, a festival founded in 1998 as a way to bring independent and ambitious filmmakers into the limelight. With the opportunity of having their work shown to an audience filled with movie lovers, critics, and anything in between, the Brooklyn Film Fest offers a once in a lifetime shot for those artists to truly make a mark on society and leave people yearning for more.

Festival top brass said the Park City event will open with a Special screening of Adam Rifkin and Penn Jillette’s Director’s Cut.
Overall the additional selections announced on Tuesday encompass 23 world, 13 North American and 13 Us premieres.
Special Screenings include sci-fi features Let’s Be Evil from Martin Owen and Embers from Claire Carré, which will close the festival.
Beyond Program selections include Axel Ranisch’s Alky Alky and Daniel Martinico’s Excursions.
The Oscar-qualifying shorts section presents 39 American and 32 international productions in Narrative, Documentary, Animation, Anarchy and Experimental sections.

The 31st edition of the Sundance Film Festival kicks off on January 22nd with Park City and Salt Lake City playing host to some of the more innovative, thought-provoking narrative and non-fiction films of 2015. Last year, a Jenga tall order of 4,057 features and 8,161 shorts were submitted. Now let’s think about those numbers for a second.
