Institute History

  • 2005 Sundance Film Festival

Description

A stylish interactive narrative about a boy who swims across his gated community. The film set is an architect's model, and the actors are miniature toy people. Still photographs were animated in Flash Animation to allow audiences to explore the community with Charlie as he hops from pool to pool, meeting strange inhabitants and even falling in love.

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.
