Institute History
Description
When I say Kafka, what comes to mind?
Mysterious police agents arrest a hapless innocent in the middle of the night, plunging him into a labyrinth of nonsensical and sadistic bureaucracy. Terror, tyranny.
Here’s what comes to my mind.
A frail, little boy in fear of his domineering and oppressive father. The boy grows up but cannot leave his father’s house, and there he continues to live for most of his 41 years.
Tyranny begins at home. As does terror. That’s what I’m looking to explore in the Kafka pieces I’ve chosen to adapt.

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.
