Institute History
Description
Ibadeta and Djeneta Demiri have been in a coma for several years, victims of the “syndrome of
resignation”. Traumatized, their bodies mysteriously stopped working. In central Sweden, the whole family
is still trying to rebuild a normal life, far from their native Kosovo. But so far, their asylum applications
have been refused one after the other. Furkan, 10, is the youngest in the family. He tries to escape this
situation by building his own rocket to fulfill his dream: to go live on Mars to save his sisters.

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.
