Institute History
Description
King, 19, has spent his whole life on the wrong side of the local sick wall, dreaming of getting to the other side. The clean side. King’s parents died when he was a boy, when the new sick laws were first coming down, and he’s been raised in a local sanitation orphanage and trained as a “cleaner” by his boss and mentor, Finnegan. When a strange new outbreak hits, the two men accept a ruthless offer from a powerful pharmaceutical executive, Marissa, forcing King to make impossible choices between his dreams, survival, and the fate of his community.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. 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.
