When Sundance leaves in 2027, attendees are weighing the pros and cons of the three finalists, Salt Lake City, Boulder, and Cincinnati.

While the Sundance Film Festival mulls a big move for 2027 , the 2025 program is under way. The event’s 41st edition kicked off January 23 in Utah, and you can look below for all of Deadline’s reviews from the fest so far.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox walked the press line for the Sundance Film Festival premiere of “Train Dreams” at the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday night. “It’s going to be an amazing festival, 41 years of Sundance here in Utah,” Cox said. “I think this is going to be the best one ever.”

Locals are advocating for the iconic Sundance Film Festival to stay in Utah. Why it matters: Sundance organizers are weeks away from announcing whether the film festival will move to Cincinnati or Boulder,

And as organizers have done since September, when three finalist host cities were announced (Boulder, Colorado; Cincinatti, Ohio; and a joint Salt Lake City/Park City bid), Eugene Hernandez declined to give any hint of an answer. "The answer is 'no, not yet,'" he said.

It's the halfway point of the fest and themes are beginning to emerge — technological detachment, pets — along with stars Dev Patel, Steven Yeun and Rachel Sennott.

Dozens of the films at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival will be available online for the event's last four days, Jan. 30-Feb. 2. Here are seven movies that will stream online that are worth the $35 price tag.
