Sundance Institute, which hosts the annual film festival, also revealed the venues that’ll screen the newest offerings in independent cinema. They include a mix of high school auditoriums, University of Colorado Boulder concert halls and local movie theaters.

Park City, which had become synonymous with Sundance, hosted its final edition in January with premieres including Channing Tatum and Gemma Chan’s harrowing drama “Josephine,” Olivia Wilde’s ensemble comedy “The Invite” and the Charli xcx mockumentary “The Moment.”

Since its inception in 1985, Sundance has served as a launch pad for indie classics like ‘Reservoir Dogs,’ ‘Napoleon Dynamite,’ ‘Sex, Lies and Videotape,’ and ‘Little Miss Sunshine.’ (ANI)
