The Institute

Written by Jakub Żulczyk

Narrated by Esther Wane

The residents of an apartment block, in Central Krakow, are trapped in their own building. All windows and doors are sealed, phone lines are down and the Internet is off. Seven people, cut off from the world.

It quickly turns out that they are participating in a strange game played by the mysterious ‘THEY'. Suspicions are cast and conflicts break out. Paranoia thickens. Until finally, blood is shed.

The Institute is a compelling suspenseful thriller and an uncomfortable and troubling study of the most primal of instincts: fear.
