Utah Independent Film Archive

The J. Willard Marriott Library's Independent Film Archive is part of the Multimedia Division of Special Collections. The archive is dedicated to the preservation of film and video art pertaining to Utah. The films in the archive are made by Utah natives, are about Utah, or were produced in Utah. The pieces in this archive represent a broad spectrum of interests and genres, from documentaries to experimental pieces to narratives.
