Institute History
Description
The death of a water scientist and kidnapping of his son in India set off an interlocking tale between Priya Haldane, his widow searching for answers, Toni Munro, a water conglomerate's fixer, and ten-year-old Neerav Singh, who's left to manage his family's farm, after his father commits suicide. Jal explores the blood, sweat, and tears surrounding India's water scarcity and the toll it takes of those who depend on it.

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.
