The Assessment marks the feature directorial debut of Fleur Fortuné, a sci-fi thriller that takes a coolly detached approach to dystopian storytelling.
Directed by Cole Webley and written by Robert Machoian, Omaha is one of the quiet standouts of this year’s Sundance Film Festival. It may be slight in its scope (and runtime), but that doesn't stop it from being emotionally devastating.

Rather than being upset about having their private life on display, Sook-Yin found the book so compelling that she adapted it into a feature film.
