Park City, Utah may be the place to be—but New York City is the place to beat at this year's Sundance Film Festival. The fest seems to be in a New York state of mind, with 45 projects at this year's fest either shot in New York or made by New York moviemakers.

"We love shooting films in New York," says producer Celine Rattray of Plum Pictures. "It really is a great place to make films. For a start, the city is stunning, and has such varied and interesting locations. The crews are great. And so many fantastic actors and filmmakers live here, and want to work here. I think that the state is a haven for creative types because of the buzz and energy in this city. There is never a quiet moment. There is such a variety of people, or ideas. This city makes you want to get things done."
