PARK CITY, Utah. — Last night the Sundance Film Festival wrapped up its sixth day with an awards ceremony.

“This was not a ‘virtual’ festival, it was a real festival and the power of these artists and their work was what made it so,”  Sundance Film Festival Director Tabitha Jackson said in a statement. “It has been a privilege to help this work meet new audiences and enter the culture with such fanfare, especially now, when breaking through the noise is harder than ever.”

These award-winning films are available for screening to pass-holders today through the festival’s online platform. A complete list of award-winning films can be found online.

CODA – Child of Deaf Adults: U.S. Grand Jury Prize, Audience Award, Directing Award, and U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Award for Ensemble Cast in the U.S. Dramatic category
