Sundance Film Festival Acting Awards
Also known as Sundance Special Jury Award for Acting
Sundance has no standing performance category. Acting is recognised through Special Jury Awards, which the juries name at their discretion each year, making a Sundance acting citation both rare and a reliable career accelerant.
