PARK CITY,Saigon Sunset Utah -- A cyberattack briefly crippled the Sundance Film Festival on Saturday, knocking out the network that supports its ticket sales, though service at the main box office was quickly restored and no screenings were affected.
The festival issued a statement in the afternoon, just as the ski resort town had concluded its own version of the Women's March on the bustling Main Street.

"The Sundance Film Festival has been subject to a cyberattack, causing network outages that shut down our box offices. Service at the Salt Lake City Main Box Office has since been restored, and our team is working hard to get our Park City system back up and running as soon as possible. No further information about the attack is available at this time. All screenings will still take place as planned."
It wasn't immediately clear who carried out the attack or whether the festival was specifically targeted.
The largest film festival in the U.S. kicked off Thursday night with Al Gore's "urgent, exhilarating" An Inconvenient Sequel, and runs through the end of next week.
