Sundance Announces New Fellows

The Sundance Institute has announced its inaugural fellows for the Creating Producing Initiative - a program of support and development aimed at producers in all stages of production - and out producer Nekisa Cooper has been selected as one of the five honorees! The project she will be working on is Pariah, a film focused on the coming-of-age of a black lesbian teenager. Click here for an older blog posting that includes Cooper's comments on the film.
