Institute, a clinic set in the future that can predict a person’s date of death with incredible accuracy. The film’s ensemble cast, led by Christina Gardner, delivers outstanding performances that drive the narrative forward while also showcasing the comedy that lies at the heart of the story.

The narrative is interesting, raising questions about the ethical and moral implications of knowing one’s date of death. The comical edge to the story helps to keep it lighthearted, while also underscoring the underlying seriousness of the issue.
