Harold of Orange

Institute History

  • 1983 Directors Lab

Description

Harold Sinseer is the leader of the Warriors of Orange, "tricksters in the new school of socio-acupuncture, where a little pressure fills the purse." His scheme this time is to seek funding from foundation directors to develop coffeehouses that will serve locally grown "pinch bean" coffee, a supposed cure for alcoholism. The film shows two indigenous Minnesota cultural entities—American Indians and philanthropic foundations—and how their interactions develop cultural goals to test and amuse.

While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
