KELLY MCEVERS, HOST:


At the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, people cannot get away from the issue of sexual harassment 1. It's the first festival post-Harvey Weinstein. And Sundance founder 2 Robert Redford kicked off this year's event by acknowledging the elephant in the room.


(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)


ROBERT REDFORD: Well, I think Harvey Weinstein was like a moment in time. And I think that we're going to move past that. I don't think he's going to stop the show.


MCEVERS: NPR's Mandalit del Barco is at Sundance, and she's with us now to talk about what's going on. Hey there.


MANDALIT DEL BARCO, BYLINE 3: Hey, Kelly.


MCEVERS: Robert Redford's usually a pretty, you know, measured, tactful person. I mean, just what - hearing what we just heard sounds like pretty strong words. How has the festival dealt with the Harvey Weinstein issue, especially given that one of the more horrifying 4 allegations against him is that he raped 6 Rose McGowan at that festival?


DEL BARCO: Well, you know, the first question at the press conference opening the festival was if Sundance somehow enabled Harvey Weinstein. And Keri Putnam, who heads the Sundance Institute, she said they weren't aware at the time of what happened. And she said they're sickened by the allegations. That was her words. And, you know, they announced that Utah's attorney general's office now has a 24-hour hotline for people to report sexual misconduct.


MCEVERS: Yeah.


DEL BARCO: And Sundance has created a code of conduct that says that they can revoke 7 credentials 8 or access to any event to anybody who harasses 9, discriminates 10, threatens or, you know, engages in somehow disrespectful behavior.


MCEVERS: And I'm thinking about the films, too, of course. We should talk about the films, right?


DEL BARCO: Right.


MCEVERS: Last year, the ones that broke out are, you know, big films now - "The Big Sick," "Call Me By Your Name," "Get Out." So what are the big ones this year?


DEL BARCO: Well, you know, Sundance is known for its strong documentaries. And one of them is about Supreme 11 Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. And, Kelly, NPR's own Nina Totenberg will be interviewing her here at a small venue 12. And that's a really hot ticket.


MCEVERS: Nice.


DEL BARCO: But there are also other - there are also other documentaries about Joan Jett and rapper M.I.A. and Jane Fonda and civil rights attorney Gloria Allred, who's been representing many of those women who accused Harvey Weinstein and comedian 13 Bill Cosby and Roy Moore of sexual harassment and rape 5. And on Saturday, Allred and Fonda are scheduled to speak at a rally on the anniversary of the Women's March. It's also the anniversary of Trump's inauguration 14.


And there's one film called "Our New President," which is the story of the last election told through the eyes of Russian media propaganda and people who live there. Another documentary is called "Dark Money." It's about the impact of contributions by Citizens United on Montana's politics. And also, I heard that there's a seven-minute film that's footage of a Nazi 15 rally at Madison Square Garden in 1939 that's supposed to have very eerie 16 parallels to today.


MCEVERS: Wow. I mean, Nazis 17 and coverage 18 of the election. It sounds like a lot of documentaries related to the news. What are some of the, you know, feature films that people are getting into?


DEL BARCO: Well, you know, last night I went to a premiere of "Blindspotting," which is a movie set in my hometown, Oakland, Calif.


MCEVERS: All right.


DEL BARCO: It was co-written and it stars Daveed Diggs from "Hamilton." There's another movie about Oakland from musician Boots Riley. And people are talking about a documentary about Mr. Rogers. There are two films about skateboarding and a film from Gus Van Sant called "Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On Foot" with Joaquin Phoenix 20 and Jonah Hill.


MCEVERS: NPR arts correspondent Mandalit del Barco in Park City, Utah, thanks so much, and have fun.


DEL BARCO: Thanks, Kelly.
