Advances in technology are affecting much more than just the content of independent movies, noted Cooper and Sundance director of programming Kim Yutani.

Colombian director Esteban Arango’s “Blast Beat” and Puerto Rico-born helmer Angel Manuel Soto’s “Charm City Kings” tilt that balance in U.S. dramatic competition.This year, the number of Sundance submissions reached a record high of 15,100, of which 3,853 were features.
