French shorts will be out in force at the upcoming 2014 Sundance Film Festival, to be held January 16-24 in Park City, Utah.
The International Competition at the 2014 festival will showcase four French films, including a co-production with Georgia (Black Mulberry), a co-production with China (Butter Lamp), and a three-way co-production between Spain, France, and the USA (A Hole in the Sky). The only film solely produced by France, My Sense of Modesty, tackles the subject of a young university student wearing the Islamic headscarf, with Hafsia Herzi playing the lead role (photo).
