Institute History
Description
Night tackles the poetry, aesthetics, and violence of Love as a concept, and the transformation of its expression from the pre-Islamic age of Jahiliyyah through Islam up through our contemporary societies. Night focuses on stories of transgression of the borders of religion, race, and gender; and it seeks to question the intimacy of this feeling within the context of hatred. In this performance, bodies strive to create new beginnings, only to find themselves unable to reach peaceful endings.

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.
