Filmmakers are a speculative bunch by nature so it’s no surprise that they so frequently imagine what our world will look like in the years to come (yes, wasted cityscapes look cool in widescreen). But how do scientists envision the near-future world we’ll live in. How will genetics, alternative energy and, you know, helpful robots improve our societies? Supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, a panel of scientists, writers and filmmakers reach across the fact/fiction aisle to explores what we’ll be thinking, eating and doing when then becomes now.

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.
