Would Snarky Millennials Podcast Through a Zombie Apocalypse? ‘Didn’t Die’ Examines Processing Grief, Family and the Undead — Sundance


Meera Menon's zombie drama "Didn't Die" is debuting in Sundance's Midnight section.

Vinita (Kiran Deol) passes the time by hosting an irreverent podcast about life in this new world, and heads to her family’s home to record a live anniversary special. What follows is a surprisingly moving story about a woman coming home again and reconnecting with her siblings, which is slightly derailed once an ex-boyfriend enters the picture, clutching a baby that isn’t his, saying he needs help. Menon says that although the initial idea came about because of her time on “The Walking Dead,” she and her collaborators — including her husband Paul Gleason, who was the cinematographer as well as a producer and co-writer on the film — were much more interested in exploring humanity through the project.
