Sundance Film Festival 2011 "Pandemic 41.410806, -75.654259"

Bree and her little brother, Tyler, know that their parents awaken only at sundown and are capable of strange and dangerous nocturnal behavior, but Tyler is unwilling to leave them.

Programmer's Note: Screening at this year's Festival in front of the feature "Sound of My Voice ," Lance Weiler's "Pandemic 41.410806, -75.654259" is part of a larger storytelling experience involving film, mobile, online, social gaming, print, and real world interactions. Concerning two children hiding out in a basement after a virus has turned their mother into something abominable, "Pandemic" marks the first in a series of shorts that will be shot around the world later this year. The short takes place in the same universe as Weiler's feature script "HiM," which recently went through the Sundance Institute Screenwriters Lab. Adventurous Park City visitors can also participate in the New Frontier Installation "Pandemic 1.0," Weiler's initial public release of this immersive story-world.
