2019 Sundance Film Festival Predictions: #68. Calvin Reeder – The Procedure 2 (Short)

Date:

November 22, 2018

Already a long history with the fest, Calvin Reeder has premiered his features at the fest in The Oregonian (Sundance ’11) and The Rambler (Sundance ’13), and loaded up his shorts there as well in Little Farm (Sundance ’07), The Rambler (Sundance ’08) and his last project which birthed a sequel. Sight unseen, we already feel bad for what Christian Palmer’s character might endure and we feel good about the 180 seconds of bliss. A Kickstarter funded project, shooting took place this fall.

Gist: A man is forced to endure another strange experiment.

Production Co./Producers: Carlos Alberto Fernandez Lopez, Megan Leonard and Christian Palmer.
