The eyes of the audience were sparsely gathered towards Lan Li.

Although his inner thoughts were a little helpless, on the surface, Lan Li was always calm and did not receive any impact at all, such a scene was completely the extent of sprinkling water for him, and there was almost no impact at all.

Lan Li turned his head indifferently and cast his gaze towards Damien and Simmons beside him, but he was even more worried that these two people would be implicated, but unexpectedly, but reasonably, both of them seemed a little absent-minded, their attention had wandered out of the world, and they didn't notice the focus of the scene at all.

Simmons is lost.

Before the Jury's Special Prize, Simmons and Lan Li were the most vocal in their awards, and there were even rumors that the two actors would replicate the miracle of "Love Crazy" to win at Sundance, and then go all the way to the Oscar statuette, and finally complete the feat of dominating the awards season throughout the year.

Rumors are rumors, but Simmons inevitably still has some expectations, deep down, he not only thinks that this work may be a turning point in his entire career, but also believes that this work is very likely to be his peak. An excellent and tasteful work is definitely something that can be encountered but not sought.

But now that he missed the Special Jury Prize, even though he has no direct connection to the Oscar season, Simmons is inevitably starting to think cranky, his eyes and expression are slightly stiff. In the eyes of others, it is a loss that cannot be concealed.

Damien was nervous.

Because after the Special Jury Prize was awarded, it was time for the final Jury Prize, and "Burst Drummer" was undoubtedly one of the most popular candidates, which made Damien unable to control his nervousness and urgency.

No one can really understand what "Burst Drummer" means to Damien: not only because this work is the brainchild of Damien's five years of preparation, and he has fallen into the point of exhaustion before he meets Lan Li, but also because this work is a summary of Damien's memories of his high school life, which condenses his own obsession with artistic creation.

What's more, Sundance has always been Damien's dream stage, and for independent filmmakers, it's a real mecca.

Even Lan Li couldn't fully understand Damien's mood 100%, but he knew that Damien, who was waiting at the door of Oscar Night, would never have made such a decision if he hadn't been cornered. Only those who really stand at the bottom can understand the gains and losses when they are close to success.

As if sensing the temperature of the close line of sight, Damien subconsciously turned his head and saw Lan Li at a glance, but the focus and focus were wandering, revealing a trace of irrepressible panic;

Lan Li didn't say anything more, he also showed a smile, and gently nodded to Damien, cheering for Damien, and then whispered with his mouth, "Are you ready?" The results of the award are about to be announced.

Damien was speechless and moved his neck slightly, but his neck muscles were too stiff to tell exactly whether he was nodding or shaking his head, like a broken nodding doll. That kind of nervous and expectant look made Lan Li's mood faintly start to jump.

Perseverance and enthusiasm for dreams are always the most wonderful part of life.

At this time, Robert Redford had officially taken the stage to announce the final jury prize, Sundance is not an Oscar or a Golden Globe, there is no need to create suspense, Robert simply revealed the result.

In the World Cinema section, the Chilean film "Kill a Man" topped the drama department, while the Syrian film "Homeway Home" dominated the documentary department.

In the main competition unit, the first to be announced was the documentary department, and "Fuqiu", which had received countless praises and pursuits throughout the film festival, successfully reached the top without any suspense, and "Music Student", which had previously won the audience's choice award, unfortunately lost, and the entire production team of "Fuqiu" hugged tightly and cheered and celebrated.

Although this is not an Oscar, Sundance's importance to independent cinema is undeniable.

The next announcement was the plot department.

The Jury Prize and the Audience Choice Award in the documentary category are not consistent, and although Sundance does not traditionally foreshadow that the winner of the two awards is always the same work, but at this moment, the suspense of the Grand Prix in the Drama Department is still suddenly obvious, can the "Burst Drummer" who has just won the Audience Choice Award make it to the top?

Robert looked at the audience with a smile, without creating too much suspense, but deliberately paused slightly, which made the scene let out a low grumbling and complaining sound, Robert laughed proudly, and then directly announced the answer, "The 30th Sundance Film Festival Jury Prize, the drama department burst drummer!"

There is suspense and no suspense.

Expected and unexpected.

Regardless, "Burst Drummer" topped the Sundance Grand Prix and won the Grand Jury Prize after the Audience Choice Award to become the biggest winner of the 30th anniversary!

This is also the second time that Lan Li's solo starring work has won the highest award from Sundance!

The audience applauded.

Damien was stunned for a moment, then clenched his fists heavily, couldn't help cheering, did not hide his excitement and excitement at all, and then jumped up directly, as if a spring was installed on the chair, standing in place and constantly clenching his hands and fists, passionately gave Lan Li a big hug, and then gave Simmons a big hug, the joy between the gestures overflowed, so that others could truly feel his full happiness.

After letting go of Simmons, Damien looked left and right, hugged Lan Li again, and said loudly in the applause of the audience, "I did it, I finally did it." Thank you!Lan Li, thank you!" hugged Lan Li hard, and then hugged Lan Li hard, using all his strength to express his gratitude.

Lan Li couldn't help but laugh and patted Damien on the shoulder, "You deserve it." Hurry up and get on stage, Robert is waiting for you. ”

Damien let go of Lan Li in a panic, turned around and trotted all the way to the stage, rushed to Robert like stepping on Hot Wheels, and gave him a warm hug.

After receiving the trophy from Robert, Damien stood in front of the microphone, looked at the audience in front of him with emotion, and quietly felt the applause through that halo, "Thank you." I mean, thank you Sundance, thank you Robert Redford, it's my dream, from the first day I started filming, I dreamed of being able to stand on the stage of Sundance......"

Halfway through his words, without warning, Damien's tears slipped down and interrupted his own words.

Damien raised his hand a little embarrassed, wiped his tears in a panic, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "I'm sorry, I still don't think it's real now, and I can't control my emotions." He himself was the first to laugh, and then said, "It's not an easy task to shoot this work, for this script, for this project, I waited for five years, and now looking back, I don't even know how I survived those five years, thank you Lan Li...... Woo, I mean, thank you......"

endured and endured, but after all, he still couldn't hold back, the tears broke the embankment again, the words were disrupted and fragmented, and he couldn't cry directly.

Damien stood there like this, drooping his head, crying bitterly, he held the trophy tightly and tightly in his arms, using all his strength, lest others snatch it away, and then let his emotions collapse and release unleashed, and the hot tears could not be stopped.

The touching and bitter appearance makes people feel sad.

Many of the art creators present felt the same way, they were all waiting hard, waiting for the moment when the dark and endless torment came to an end, waiting for the moment when their artistic creations could find a display platform and even be recognized, in the process of waiting, how many people chose to give up, how many people were completely defeated, and how many people did nothing all their lives, they didn't even know if their waiting was meaningful.

Maybe only on the day of the end of life, looking back on your life, can you find the answer.

At this moment, looking at Damien crying bitterly on the stage, the sad resonance awakened everyone's deep heart. So, the applause rang out again, sweeping the audience mightily, congratulating Damien on his award, but more to reward Damien's persistence.

Damien cried out so out of shape, as if he wanted to vent all the grievances of all these years.

Taking a deep breath, taking another deep breath, his emotions finally stabilized slightly, and Damien continued, "Thank you Lan Li, thank you for your willingness to listen to my nobody's film project, and thank you for your willingness to believe in my talent and persistence, without you, there would be no movie." Thank you even more for your wonderful performance in the movie, I know that you have given so much for this movie, and you should stand here with me. ”

Lan Li, who was sitting in the audience, couldn't help but reddened his eyes slightly, Damien's collapse and release, without any manners to speak of, but it was so sincere and so moving, which reminded him once again of the countless ups and downs on the road of his dreams, which is also the greatest thing about dreams: it makes life better.

In response to Damien's thanks, Lan Li raised his hands and gave a round of applause in response

Salute to every dreamer who works the road of dreams, whether they succeed or fail, in the proposition of life, they have taken the lead in winning the opportunity to prove themselves, no matter what the result is, they are the winners!
