Z-Machine's exciting independent 3-part docuseries, "Before the End: Searching for Jim Morrison. " The first of its kind documystery series clocks in at a total of 3.5-hours (each episode is just over an hour in length) and will make its global TVOD/Digital release on January 13, 2025, following Morrison's 81st birthday, available on all the major platforms of Amazon Prime Video, AppleTV, Google Play, and YouTube TV.

A dozen years in the making, Before the End's cryptic tagline encapsulates its investigative approach: "One Man. Countless Myths. And in between lies the truth." Z-Machine founder, Jeff Finn's extraordinary detail work breaks the decades-long hermetic seal on the traumatic formative years that forged a brief hellacious life, through Morrison's controversial career as lead singer of the legendary 1960s rock band, The Doors, to his reported 1971 death by "heart failure" in Paris at age 27. Morrison's ostensible demise, technically an unsolved cold case, formed its own rabbit hole of reasonable doubt, which inspired Finn to consult with private investigators and forensic analysts.

Before the End transcends "rock doc" in the same sense that Jim Morrison was more than a rock star. Featuring unprecedented content, from shocking corroboration about Morrison's early life to harrowing revelations about his stardom, and fresh evidence that contradicts his professed death, Before the End: Searching for Jim Morrison is proudly unauthorized because it "seeks the unvarnished truth." The documystery reverse-engineers long-controlled narratives while it explores the notion of Morrison the nonconformist as neurodivergent, and deconstructs - through on-camera interviews with family, friends, lovers, classmates, and associates – key distinctions between Jim Morrison, "rock god," and James Douglas Morrison, an introverted outsider.

Following a cinematic language that will feel like the crystalline bedrock of those majestic natural tableaus of films like THE REVENANT and INTO THE WILD.

THE YETI is co-written and co-directed by Emmy award winner Gene Gallerano (THE FIRST WAVE, AMERICAN SYMPHONY, National Geographic's PHOTOGRAPHER), and William Pisciotta (THUNDER ROAD, BEAST BEAST). THE YETI Creature Design is spearhead by the innovative team of industry titans Wayne Anderson & Ali Gordon (THE PREDATOR, JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM, STRANGER THINGS, GHOSTBUSTERS, IT, THE NUN, HELLRAISER, THE TOMORROW WAR, AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER)

Oil tycoon, Merriell Sunday Sr. and renowned adventurer, Hollis Bannister have disappeared without a trace. Their last known location is northern Alaska. Ellie Bannister and Merriell Sunday Jr., set out to search for their missing fathers and the truth behind what made them vanish! As the rescue team heads deeper into the heart of this frozen landscape, danger mounts.

November 22, 2024, Park City, UT — The nonprofit Sundance Institute today announced details for the 2025 Sundance Film Festival's gala fundraiser, Celebrating Sundance Institute Presented by Google TV, which will take place on Friday, January 24, 2025 at the Grand Hyatt Deer Valley in Utah. The event will be an evening in celebration of Michelle Satter, Founding Senior Director of Artist Programs at Sundance Institute, for her longstanding commitment to nurturing artists and cultivating independent film through the Sundance Labs, where visionary artists convene to develop groundbreaking projects through an in-depth creative process, for the past four decades. The annual Vanguard Awards Presented by Acura will be awarded during the evening to Sean Wang, writer and director of Dìdi (弟弟), and Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie, co-directors of Sugarcane, who premiered their films at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.

The annual gala enables the nonprofit to raise funds to support independent artists year-round through labs, grants, and public programming that nurture artists from all over the world. The 2025 event is made possible with the generous support of Google TV. The Festival will take place from January 23–February 2, 2025, in person in Park City and Salt Lake City, Utah, with a selection of titles available online from January 30–February 2, 2025 for audiences across the country to discover bold independent storytelling.

Starting in 1981, Michelle Satter worked alongside Robert Redford who founded the Sundance Institute. Together with a committed team of leaders and collaborators, they developed impactful ways of mentoring emerging independent storytellers in a creative, rigorous, and safe space which launched with the annual June Filmmakers Lab. Satter has acted as an influential mentor to generations of award-winning filmmakers, including Quentin Tarantino, Chloé Zhao, Dee Rees, John Cameron Mitchell, Paul Thomas Anderson, Gina Prince-Bythewood, Ryan Coogler, Miranda July, Kimberly Peirce, Darren Aronofsky, Sterlin Harjo, Taika Waititi, and many more. Over the years, Satter has built the Episodic Program, Producers Program, the Institute's global initiatives and oversees the Indigenous, Catalyst, and Documentary Film Programs. She also founded Sundance Collab — a global digital platform for storytelling, learning, and community, open to creators everywhere. Over the years, Satter's contributions to film and advocacy have been recognized with numerous awards including the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, an Oscar presented at the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science's 2024 Governors Awards, the Women in Film Business Leadership Award, and the ACLU Bill of Rights Award.
