Institute History
Description
In a behind-the-scenes look at the biggest political upset in recent history, TRUMPED offers unprecedented access and never-before-seen footage of then-candidate Donald Trump throughout the entirety of the 2016 presidential election, from the primaries through the debates to the dawning realization that the controversial businessman would become the 45th president of the United States. Though these events are freshly ingrained in our collective consciousness, the profound effect of watching them through the prism of an accelerated reality casts new light on the state of the Union while harnessing the power of cinema to expand our perception of the election.

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.
