The 2013 Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize at the Sundance Film Festival has been awarded to Computer Chess. The comedy, set during a 1980s computer chess tournament, was written and directed by Andrew Bujalski, one of the key "Mumblecore" directors whose acclaimed previous films include Funny Ha Ha and Mutual Appreciation. The jury presented the award to the film for its “off-beat and formalistically adventurous exploration of questions of artificial intelligence and human connections.”
