I know i should have post this earlier. After we came back we need to recuperate a bit and too many shit I have to take care of. Anyhow, Sundance was so fucking fun and I really enjoy all the positive energy of the festival. All the super hardworking super talented individuals I met gives me a big kick to think even more outside the box. Here are all the cool dudes and dudettes I met:

Hey Kenneth, good fun hanging out with you. I look half asleep in that picture. It guess it was an early call that day for the director’s brunch.
Take care.
