News Image
The Sundance Institute has announced the programme for the very first Sundance London Film and Music Festival.
Fourteen narrative and documentary feature films will make their UK premieres at the inaugural Sundance London festival, taking place at The O2 from 26-29 April.
Julie Delpy's latest movie 2 Days in New York and the award-winning drugs documentary The House I Live In will be shown.
The Queen of Versailles, Liberal Arts and Filly Brown also feature on the list of 14 films at the four-day event.
"I welcome the opportunity to see how people in the UK experience these films," said Robert Redford, President and Founder of Sundance Institute.
"While they are American productions they speak to universal experiences and global challenges."
He went on to add, "Sundance London also is the perfect opportunity to continue our long-time commitment to growing a broader international community around new voices and new perspectives."
The event is a smaller version of the annual US film festival of the same name.
