madness!

Last week, I had sent an impatient e-mail to Sundance, enquiring about the status of 'River'. I got a rather amused reply today, saying they have received over 8000 films this year and they needed until december. I read it again as I could not believe my eyes. It was indeed 8K!!!

Now, assuming 70 percent of them were short films, we are talking about 5,600 films!!! Yeah, that doesnt augur well for 'River', but my first reaction was.....'That jury is about to go insane for life'!! can you imagine sitting through thousands of short films, conceived by warped minds all over the globe including yours truly?
