Watch the first trailer for the film we called in our Sundance Film Festival review “an elaborate, chaotically hilarious, intensely terrifying journey worth taking.” Adapted from the Sundance Special Jury Award-winning 2018 short film of the same name, and the feature film itself winning the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at Sundance, “Emergency” is a satirical thriller that aims to bring tension humor to the craziness of college and the complications of race.
In the early moments of Carey Williams’ “Emergency,” you might think that you’re in a one crazy night movie you’ve seen before. You know the kind: a long night of partying and various drunken confrontations between friends, concluded with a serene moral and emotional parting where everywhere grows up a little.
Carey Williams’ 2018 Sundance award-winning short, “Emergency,” opens on a simple premise: A trio of underrepresented college roommates discover a white girl unconscious on their living room floor. Afraid to call the police for fear of potential violence, they suggest options to find help without losing their lives.

Addie Morfoot ContributorRacism and women’s rights are two timely, urgent issues that numerous directors with films at Sundance tackle via fictional or documentary films.Mariama Diallo’s “Master” and Carey Williams’ “Emergency” are two examples of narrative features heading to the fest that address the issue of race and racism in America. While Diallo’s “Master” portrays racism in an academic setting, Williams’ “Emergency” follows a group of Black and Latino college students who weigh the pros and cons of calling the police when faced with an emergency situation.“As always, our program is a reflection of artists’ response to the times we live in,” says Kim Yutani, Sundance Film Festival’s director of programming.
EXCLUSIVE: Sabrina Carpenter, RJ Cyler, Donald Watkins, and Sebastian Chacon have been tapped to star in Emergency, a comedy thriller that hails from Amazon Studios and Temple Hill. Filming is currently underway with Carey Williams directing the film from the screenplay by KD Dávila, which landed on the 2020 Blacklist.
Tomris Laffly There are instances in director Carey Williams’ boldly experimental yet wearisome “R#J” that genuinely grasp the essence of romance, identity and existence in the age of social media. Those fleeting but relatable moments feel like major triumphs in Williams’ Gen Z-centric adaptation of “Romeo and Juliet,” a movie that unfolds almost entirely on electronic screens.
