25 Great Indie Films Overlooked in 2023: <\/H1>The year-end crush to deliver timely best-of lists as voters across guilds and other blocs scramble to fill out their own ballots means plenty of films will end up left out or even unseen. That\u2019s especially true of independent films and especially true of indies released way earlier in the year. Indies getting plenty of exposure so far this season include Celine Song\u2019s \u201cPast Lives,\u201d the belle of the ball since premiering at Sundance back in January 2023, Cord Jefferson\u2019s TIFF People\u2019s Choice Award winner \u201cAmerican Fiction,\u201d Todd Haynes\u2019 Netflix premiere \u201cMay December,\u201d Ira Sachs\u2019 love triangle \u201cPassages,\u201d and Andrew Haigh\u2019s Christmas release \u201cAll of Us Strangers.\u201d<\/p>\n

As much as IndieWire loves all these films, plenty more deserve your attention and from under the radar \u2014 even the film that won the Dramatic Grand Jury Prize at Sundance 2023, \u201cA Thousand and One,\u201d up for Film Independent Spirit Awards but curiously missing from a lot of year-end coverage. Any year where indie films find a means to success is a triumph when up against the onslaught of big-budgeted franchises that themselves crib indie talent to build their worlds in the first place. Getting an indie film off the ground is always a challenge, no matter the circumstances or names or dollars behind it, and any indie director who\u2019s dipped their feet into the studio space and gone independent again would tell you the same thing.<\/p>\n

Below, we\u2019ve rounded up 25 great overlooked indies from 2023 you shouldn\u2019t sleep on. View the full list at IndieWire<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
