5:42Now Playingdemocracynow.org - Robert Redford is well known as an actor, a director, a producer and activist. Since 1980, through the Sundance Film Festival and the Sundance Institute, Robert Redford has helped independent voices develop their craft — in film, in theater and music — to reach larger and newer audiences. Democracy Now! Host Amy Goodman speaks with Redford about how independent cinema became his passion. "To me, stories worth telling are stories about what's the truth beneath the truth you were given, or think you know ... I wanted to focus on independent films to keep alive the independent spirit through storytelling and movie-making."
