The award was first presented in 2015 to director Christopher Nolan (“Inception,” “Dunkirk”) and in 2018 was awarded to Joe and Anthony Russo (“Captain America: Civil War,” “Avengers: Infinity War”). Soderbergh will participate in a live discussion with Slamdance Co-founder and President Peter Baxter before a sneak preview of his newest film, “High Flying Bird.” Written by Oscar-winner Tarell Alvin McCraney (“Moonlight”) and starring André Holland, Zazie Beetz, Melvin Gregg, Sonja Sohn, Zachary Quinto, Kyle MacLachlan and Bill Duke, “High Flying Bird” takes place during a pro basketball lockout and follows a sports agent (Holland) as he pitches a rookie basketball client (Gregg) on an intriguing and controversial business proposition. The film was produced by Joseph Malloch and executive produced by Holland and Ken Meyer. “High Flying Bird” will launch globally on Friday, Feb. 8, 2019 on Netflix. “’Don’t ask for permission!’ That was Steven Soderbergh’s advice to us when Slamdance was getting started and it continues to be the core of our brand. We answer to no one,” said Baxter. “Slamdance filmmakers have changed the entertainment industry and Steven Soderbergh showed us the way. Without his involvement over the last 25 years both as a filmmaker and mentor to our filmmakers, Slamdance wouldn’t be the organization it is today.” Slamdance has also announced the world premiere of “Ski Bum: The Warren Miller Story” as their 2019 opening night film. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Patrick Creadon (“Wordplay”) and produced by Jeff Conroy under his production banner BoBCat Partners, as well as Joe Berry of Lorton Entertainment, the The L.A.

Miller, who died earlier this year at the age of 93 while the documentary was still in production, sat with the filmmakers months before his passing in what would prove to be his final interview. In addition to Miller himself, “Ski Bum: The Warren Miller Story” features interviews with Olympic gold medalist Jonny Moseley, ski legends Scot Schmidt, Dan and John Egan, Kristen Ulmer, Brad Vancour, and fellow ski filmmaker Greg Stump, along with members of Miller’s family and the filmmak- ing team. The festival’s closing night film, “This Teacher,” is directed by Slamdance alumni Mark Jackson (“Without”) and was awarded the Grand Jury Prize at the Los Angeles Film Festival in September. In his third feature, Jackson follows a French Muslim woman, played by Cesar-winner Hafsia Herzi, as she travels to New York City to visit her childhood best friend. When the reunion proves disastrous, Hafsia disappears to a remote cabin upstate where her vacation gradually descends into a terrifying study of the intolerance and suspicion she encounters and reflects back to an Islamophobic America.

There was no more question about whether or not we were going to hide it anymore.” David decided to dive deeper into his and Nic’s experience with “Beautiful Boy,” which was published in 2008. Since then, it’s been translated to 12 languages, and it won the Barnes and Noble Discover Award for nonfiction. It also landed on Amazon’s list of the Best Books of 2008. “It was painful and it was scary to write it,” David said. “I braced myself for fear of being judged when the article and book came out. But the reaction was an outpouring of support, love, and sharing of stories.” Nic, who will be nine years sober on Dec. 23, said writing his memoirs was as much for him as it was for readers. “Writing was therapeutic for me,” he said. “And when the books came out, it was really like we had allowed others to share their stories with us.” While some authors chafe when their work crosses mediums, David couldn’t be happier with the film adaptation of “Beautiful Boy,” which debuted on Nov. 9 and has made more than $7 million on almost 800 screens as of Dec. 9, according to Box Office Mojo. “Movies are bigger than books, and so many more people will see this,” he said. “This is a way for us to connect with more people.” Sheffs will discuss addiction what was going on with me.” When Nic was well on the road to recovery, David thought deeply about his experiences as a parent struggling with a child’s addiction. “Because of the shame of the stigma of addiction, I realized that not only were we suffering through the hardest time in our family’s life, we were hiding it,” David said. “I would go to my other children’s swim meets and pretend that everything was OK on the outside, but (I was) dying on the inside.” In 2005, New York Times Magazine published David Sheff’s reflection on his ordeal, “My Addicted Son.” “I realized that there was a conversation that needed to happen that wasn’t happening,” he said. “I’m a journalist. I write, and it was natural for me to do this.” The response to his account was overwhelming. “I got letters from parents who told me that they, too, were keeping their struggle with addictions secret or that they thought they were alone, but realized they weren’t,” David SUDOKU 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 24 26 29 30 31 33 35 In the way of Patience, they say House of Dana fragrance Rink star and a “Catch-22” pilot Backyard party centerpiece Pickled veggies Enzyme suffix Like an increase from six to sixty At some former time “__ we go” Mosque leader Move like molasses Deft Bloke Soothing suffix for a hot day Code-breaking org.
