Project Synopsis

Universal Stories is a compelling and entertaining series of documentary short films telling real stories of real guests and their unreal vacations at Universal Orlando Resort. They present real life in an authentic way that doesn’t hide from the imperfections we all experience. A film crew tells the story of the guest(s) and follows them throughout the entirety of their vacation, from their hometown to their Universal stay in Orlando. Universal Stories documentaries are just as likely to evoke tears of hysterical laughter as tears of heartfelt emotion.
