anthropology
Written by Lauren Gunderson
March 27 to April 19, 2026
Fridays & Saturdays at 7:30pm | Sundays at 2:00pm
In this riveting techno-thriller wrapped in a heart-wrenching mystery, Lauren Gunderson (Silent Sky) asks how far we’ll go to preserve the people we love—and the cost of trying to bring them back. Brilliant software developer Merril is reeling after her sister’s sudden death. Using cutting-edge AI and digital clues, she creates a virtual version of her sister to find the truth—but the deeper she digs, the more reality begins to blur. As memory and technology entwine, anthropology becomes a stunning exploration of loss, grief, and identity in the digital age.
