Sundance 2011: Andrew Okpeaha MacLean’s On the Ice

Date:

The site will be playing catch up for the next couple of weeks with loads of Sundance reviews, interviews and screening coverage, Here we rewind back to Day 2’s world premiere post-screening Q&A for Andrew Okpeaha MacLean’s On the Ice. Competing in the U.S Dramatic Competition, the Alaskan-born filmmaker work-shopped the film in the Sundance labs and his previous short on which this is based on, was also at the festival a couple of years back. The selection is part of the festivals’ commitment to supporting films from native filmmakers (far north is included). Review coming soon.
