Winners of the 2020 Sundance Film Festival jury prizes in short filmmaking were announced tonight by Sundance Institute at a ceremony in Park City, Utah.

The Oscar-nominated puppet film Daughter by Daria Kashcheeva won the Short Film Jury Award for Animation in a programme of 74 short films. This year's Short Film jurors are Sian Clifford, Marcus Hu, and Cindy Sherman.

Should you hide your pain, close yourself inside your inner world, and long for your father's love? Or should you understand and forgive before it's too late?

The Short Film Grand Jury Prize was awarded to the live-action film "So What If the Goats Die," directed and written by Sofia Alaoui. The Short Film program is presented by Southwest Airlines®.
