Stella Artois Celebrates Films, Filmmakers Shaping Culture at 2019 Sundance Film Festival

Stella Artois, the official beer of the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, invites Festival goers to visit “Stella’s Film Lounge” to be part of thought-provoking conversations and celebrations around this year’s most buzzed-about films, provocative cultural topics and female-driven projects. During select hours throughout opening weekend, attendees can also stop by the lounge, located at 364 Main Street, to enjoy a crisp Stella Artois or Cidre Hot Toddy.

Throughout the weekend, some of the Festival’s most well-known casts will join a series of live panels livestreamed on Deadline.com that provide an inside look at this year’s hottest films, including “To The Stars,” “Late Night,” “Clemency,” “Them That Follow,” and “Fighting With My Family.”

Stella Artois will also toast to the most talked-about casts and crews at VIP evening celebrations with surprise performances, including “Paradise Hills,” “The Sound of Silence,’ “I Am Mother,” “Judy & Punch,” “Little Monsters,” “David Crosby: Remember My Name” and “Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men.”

Additionally, as part of its ongoing partnership with Women In Film, the brand will reaffirm its support of female filmmakers who are helping to push forward the mission for inclusion and gender parity.

This will include honoring the up-and-coming filmmaker recipients of the second annual Stella Artois-funded Film Finishing Fund grants, who have each received a $25,000 grant for fiction and documentary films by women that inspire social change.

A special live panel will also shine a spotlight on ReFrame, a coalition of industry professionals and partner companies founded by Women In Film and Sundance Institute whose mission is to increase the number of women of all backgrounds working in film, TV and media. The panel will show how ReFrame Stamp award-winning producers and directors achieved gender parity on their productions.
