Slamdance 2002 kicked off Jan 11 with the premier of 13 Moons, a film
about a bizarre assortment of people that find themselves all together in an
effort to save a six-year-old boy's life. Slamdance, taking place at the Silvermine,
is a festival of independent, low-budget films that runs independently of, but
at the same time, as the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Slamdance
runs from Jan 11-19, with films falling under eight categories: $99 Specials,
Special Screening Shorts, Competition Shorts, Lounge Shorts, Lounge Features,
Competition Features, Special Screening Features, and Anarchy Films. Festival-goers
can also indulge in Slamdance's traditional "fireside chats," where
important topics of interest to filmmakers are discussed in a friendly atmosphere.

Slamdance winds down the week's events with their Festival Summit, an all-night
party open to all filmmakers from all festivals in the Park City area. The organizers
hope to welcome over 2500 people to the party, as it did last year.
