Slamdance. Lineup.

Announcing its lineup, the Slamdance Film Festival also, and quite rightly, crows that it's "shattered all previous submission records, receiving over 3600 submissions for less than 100 slots, a milestone that catapults the movie showcase into one of the largest film festivals in the world. Celebrating its 13th year, Slamdance has also become the pre-eminent film festival whose sole mission is to nurture, support and showcase truly independent works, having established a unique reputation for premiering a new democratic method... The mantra of 'by filmmakers, for filmmakers' resounds at every level of the organization, and plays a part in all of its undertakings."

Thanks (and congrats!) to Bangkok producer Aaron Smith for the heads-up. And for more on the 07 edition, see Eugene Hernandez's report at indieWIRE.
