The Sundance Film Festival is adding two docs to its 2025 schedule.
The Alabama Solution and The Stringer will both screen in the Premieres section of the fest, which will kick off on Jan. 23 in park City.
From Bao Nguyen, who last year premiered The Greatest Night in Pop at the fest, The Stringer follows a two-year search to uncover, according to its logline, “the scandal behind the making of one of the most recognized photographs of the 20th century.”
Andrew Jarecki Charlotte Kaufman’s The Alabama Solution focuses on the incarcerated men who expose a cover-up in one of America’s deadliest prison systems.
“Adding these two nonfiction features to our robust slate of documentary offerings at the Festival, both told by filmmakers who have been a part of our Sundance community for many years, completes our programming with compelling explorations around justice and truth-telling,” said festival program director Kim Yutani.
The films join a doc lineup that includes films from Questlove and Barry Levinson, along with titles that focus on Marlee Matlin, Jeff Buckley and Selena Quintanilla-Pérez.
