Presented by Sundance Institute

Increased visibility for historically underrepresented people is empowering but also can bring new, complex questions and challenges. This panel will provide a chance for successful creators impacted by current (and sometimes false or performative) interest in diversity in Hollywood to discuss the struggles, boons, doubts, and responsibilities of balancing more grassroots, edgy artistic spaces. Producer Alethea Arnaquq-Baril has been fending off problematic scripts from non-native producers ever since her first film was released and join the conversation with Zackary Drucker, Randall Park and Marlee Matlin.
