Synopsis of The Institute
Luke Ellis, a gifted teenager, wakes up in a strange place where children with unusual abilities like his live. The place is called the Institute, an isolated facility in rural Maine, where experiments are carried out on the kids under the supervision of Mrs. Sigsby, its director. Luke wants to escape as soon as possible and clashes head-on with Sigsby, who defends her unscrupulous mission. Meanwhile, Tim Jamieson, a former police officer who has just arrived in the nearby town, suspects the cruel methods used there. Created by Benjamin Cavell, the series airs on MGM+ and stars Ben Barnes, Mary-Louise Parker and Joe Freeman.
