Lynn Shelton, the director of acclaimed independent films like 'Humpday' and 'Your Sister's Sister,' has died at the age of 54
. Marc Maron, Shelton’s partner at the time of her death, confirmed her death in a statement.
“I have some awful news. Lynn passed away last night. She collapsed yesterday morning after having been ill for a week,” Maron said in a statement . “There was a previously unknown, underlying condition. It was not COVID-19. The doctors could not save her. They tried. Hard.” Maron continued, “I loved her very much as I know many of you did as well. It’s devastating. I am leveled, heartbroken and in complete shock and don’t really know how to move forward in this moment. I needed you all to know. I don’t know some of you. Some I do. I’m just trying to let the people who were important to her know.”, which was awarded Special Jury Prize for Spirit of Independence at that year’s Sundance Film Festival.
