In case you can't make it to the Sundance Film Festival for some reason, YouTube's got you covered. The well-known independent film event is taking place in Park City, Utah, between January 20 and 30 this year, and the YouTube Screening Room is going to do its best to make you feel like you're there.

Over the next few weeks, the Screening Room will feature four career-starting short films from past Sundance festivals, four short films from past participants in the Sundance Director's Lab, and 12 short films from the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.

This week, four new films from up-and-coming directors are ready to watch:
  • 8 Bits is about a fight between an 8-bit superhero and a high-definition boss
  • Andy and Zach is about a guy trying to set up a new life when his roommate and best friend moves out
  • Skateistan: To Live and Skate in Kabul is about an oasis that lets children be children, allowing them to build the cross-cultural relationships that may bring stability to Afghanistan
  • The High Level Bridge is about honoring the memory of those who've jumped from Edmonton's High Level Bridge
On January 27, and then on February 3, the YouTube Screening Room will make more Sundance short films available to watch.
