#21. Future Weather – Jenny Deller
Knowing how Redford feels about the environment and films that promote responsibility of mother earth, Sundance programmers have probably been
tracking this title for some time now. Multiple grant winner of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, Jenny Deller’s three generational tale/environmental drama has got some strong indie pedigree such as Lili Taylor among the cast and on the tech side, they’ve got dp Zak Mulligan who did some great work on Obselidia – a Park City entry back in 2010. Nominated for a new Gotham award this year, we think Future Weather is possibly a good fit for the U.S Dramatic Comp.
Gist: Lauduree (Haney-Jardine) is a teenage loner passionate about nature and worried about global warming. Greta, her grandmother, is a caustic nurse jaded by alcohol and disappointment. They’re thrust into each other’s lives when Lauduree’s mother flees to pursue her long-held dream of being a make-up artist for the stars.
Producers: Deller and Kristin Fairweather
