Yes, Jakarta is coming to Utah.

The Sundance Film Festival has just announced their Spotlight, Midnight and Next programs - more on those is separate posts - and Gareth Huw Evans' Indonesian martial arts picture The Raid will be making the trip to the big festival as part of the Spotlight section.

All hell breaks loose when an elite SWAT team, given orders to raid a run-down Jakarta apartment building that houses the city's most notorious crime boss, is forced to fight their way to freedom or die trying.

Let's just say The Raid is slightly different than the sort of film Sundance is best known for exhibiting. Bring bandaids.
