Ep. 219: Sundance 2024 with Eric Hynes: Preview, Power, Black Box Diaries

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw with your host, Nicolas Rapold. January is here and it’s time for the 2024 Sundance Film Festival. To kick off this year’s suite of episodes, I am delighted to join forces again with Sundance stalwart Eric Hynes, curator of film at the Museum of the Moving Image. We discuss the latest edition of the festival, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, and we sample a few films that screened early on. Films discussed include: Power (directed by Yance Ford), Black Box Diaries (Shiori Ito), and Agent of Happiness (Arun Bhattarai and Dorottya Zurbó). Check back for more reports from snowy-but-not-oppressively-so Park City!
