Sundance Grand Jury Winner ‘The Procedure’ Is A Nsfw Short Film That Will Leave You Appalled — Watch
Calvin Reeder’s short film “The Procedure” runs under four minutes, but chances are it will stay with you for the rest of your life. That sounds like hyperbole, but we can comfortably say we’ve never seen something quite like it before. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and was awarded the Short Film Jury Award for U.S Fiction.

The only thing that might shock you more than the plot is the fact that Sundance awarded a film like this in the first place, but the mastery of its execution, editing and control of tension can’t be denied. The short just debuted on Vimeo in full and has been selected as an official Vimeo Staff Pick.
“This isn’t something that comes premeditated, it just clicked,” Reeder told Vimeo about the film.

Last week, we had fun chiming in on how Sundance 2016 might look like with our Sundance predictions list. Our series was exactly one short from the promised 75. We decided to switch things up this year. Our last pick is reserved for what is a next to impossible, needle in the haystack guess at what films might break into the short film sections. Out of the 8000 plus submissions the Sundance Short Film programmers will receive, they’ll end up selecting a little less than a hundred short films. Here are some ideas as to who and what could show up.
The Bulb and The Procedure
No stranger to Park City, Calvin Reeder has supplied the fest with features such as The Oregonian (2011), The Rambler (2013) and could very well bring this Kickstarter pairing to public access television blitz and X-Files love. Production wrapped in August. Actors Linas Phillips and Christian Palmer star.
