Sundance-supported Projects Take Home Four 2022 Gotham Awards Wins

Three young friends relax on a park bench.

Last night, the Gotham Film and Media Institute unveiled the winners of their 2022 Gotham Awards and, while the Best Feature statuette went to Everything Everywhere All at Once (by, cough, Sundance alums The Daniels, cough!), we were thrilled to see Sundance-supported projects honored as well.

Channing Godfrey Peoples on a Bittersweet ‘Miss Juneteenth’ Release and the Urgency of Portraying Black Humanity on Screen

After premiering at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival, Channing Godfrey Peoples’s debut feature is hitting digital platforms this Juneteenth—the day for which the film is named and which is very close to the director’s heart. “I feel like I’ve been living Miss Juneteenth my whole life,” she says.
The June 19 holiday—which commemorates the day slavery was finally abolished in Texas (more than two years after the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation was issued)—is celebrated in her hometown of Fort Worth with a deep sense of reverence and community, with barbecues, a parade, and a scholarship pageant for young Black women.
